 LESSON TYPES OF SPEECH CONTEXT
1 1

There is never a day that you do not communicate. It could be a group discussion, Facebook status
update, dinner conversation with someone you are interested in, or small talk with a family member. In
this case, it is necessary for you to understand the concept of speaking in a variety of communication
situation and the number of people you are communicating with.

Since you have already learned the various components of communication in the previous modules,
this time you are going to look at speech context and find out how to act appropriately in the different
communication situations.

What’s In
In the previous lesson, you were able to determine the verbal and non-verbal cues
that the speaker uses in order to achieve his/her purpose. You were given different
activities that helped you to fully understand the functions of communication (i.e.
control, social interaction, motivation, emotional expression and information dissemination).

You have now realized that your ability to communicate affects your relationship with the people around
you. To further strengthen this insight, the tasks in this module will let you discover the meaning and
types of speech context, and apply appropriate verbal and non-verbal behavior in different speech
situations.

What’s New

Speech Context
Context when referring to speech communication is the surroundings, circumstances,
environment, background or setting that determine, specify, or clarify the meaning of an event.
(LumenLearning.com/Elements of Communication).

According to DeVito (2005), “Context refers to the setting in which the communication
takes place. Context helps to establish meaning and can influence what is said and how it is
said.”

What Is It

Speech Context is important because it helps you communicate appropriately, understand the
meaning of any message conveyed, and respond accordingly. In order for you to have a clear grasp of
what Speech Context is, its types are discussed below.

Types of Speech Context

1. Intrapersonal – This refers to a type of communication that is focused on one person, where
the speaker acts both as the sender and as the receiver of the message. The message is made up of
thoughts and feelings while the medium is the brain that processes what you think and feel. (Hybels &
Weaver, 2012, p 16)

Examples:

• There is a voice within you that tells you, “It’s okay, you can still do it! You can make it!”
when you are losing your drive to finish the task that you are doing.
• When you told yourself not to talk to your friends when you have read in a Facebook post
that they were in a party and you were not invited.

8
2. Interpersonal – This refers to the type of communication that takes place between and among
people and creates a personal relationship between and among them. Normally, it includes
two individuals, and it can vary from casual and very personal to formal and impersonal.

Types of Interpersonal Communication

1. Dyad Communication – communication that happens between two people.

Examples:

• You consoled your brother who was feeling down.

• A conversation between your father and mother about the latest
announcement of your Barangay Chairman

2. Small Group– This applies to interactions involving at least three but not more than twelve
people engaged in face-to-face interactions to achieve the desired goal. In this type of
conversation, all participants can freely express their ideas throughout the discussion.

Examples:

• You are having a discussion with your two brothers about the surprise
party you are planning for your Mom’s birthday.
• Kathlyn who came back from the United States called her three brothers and
four sisters and announced that she is getting married.

3. Public– This type refers to a communication that enables you to send or deliver a message
before a crowd. The message can be transmitted for informative or persuasive purposes.
"In public communication, unlike interpersonal and small groups, the channels are more
exaggerated. The voice is louder and the gestures are more expansive because the audience is
larger” (Hybels & Weaver, 2012, p 19).

Examples:

• Delivering a graduation speech to your fellow graduates .

• You were elected as the new SSG president of your school and were given a
chance to deliver a message of gratitude to your fellow students.

4. Mass Communication – This refers to communication through television, radio,

newspapers, magazines, books, billboards, the internet, and other types of media.

Examples:

• You are watching a televised briefing of IATF on COVID-19.

• You have recorded a commentary for your school’s Online Discussion of
the pandemic and uploaded it in your social media account

Verbal and Non-verbal Behavior in a Speech Context
Different speech context whether it is intrapersonal, interpersonal, public or mass
communication requires different approaches. Though there might be some occasional
similarities, you should at least know how to behave and respond to various speech contexts
appropriately.

When talking to your self

You might be familiar with the feeling of quietly talking to yourself in your mind, and it's normal
— and good for you. By performing this, it makes you think and reflect on the things you
have done or are planning to do. But here are some important
reminders that you need to keep in mind:

1. Use self-talk to your advantage: Cheering

yourself up before an important event or talking to
yourself while completing a task are two perfect
opportunities for self-talk (Gould,
2018, Talking to yourself is normal, n.d.).

2. Don’t overdo it. While it is normal to talk to

yourself constantly, it is better not to overuse
yourself of doing so. The most common reason why
people end up talking to themselves is because they
feel like they do not have someone else to talk to.
To address this, you need to be more sociable, it
would give you
more people to talk to other than yourself.

When talking to one person or a small group of people

Consoling your friend who is feeling down, or simply talking with your classmates about
your plans for a group activity is an example of a dyad and small group communication.
This kind of communication implies that the conversation is being shared and there is
exchange of ideas. Small group involves different skills because unlike dyad, it consists of more
than two people. In both cases, you can be as natural as yourself, however, unlike a running
conversation in your head, you have to consider that there are others who are equally
important in the conversation. Thus, to achieve successful communication in a dyad or small
group, you have to consider the following;

1. Listen carefully

Needless to say, this is the very basic

foundation of effective communication.
You have to listen carefully and
understand what the other person is
saying. Asking clarifying questions lets the
other person know that you are indeed
listening attentively. More so, take active
part. You also need to be heard and
understood when it is your time to speak.

10
2. Check your tone and body language.

The vocabulary of the body is more revealing

than the actual words you speak. So, watch
your tone and body language while you are
talking. Is your tone tough? Do you smile
and encourage the person you are talking to?
Your body language tells more about
your emotions and thoughts than your
actual
words. Bear this in mind the next time
you have a conversation with someone.
Check
your body language to ensure that it is
consistent with your words (Oakes, 2017).

3. When talking to the public

Speaking in front of the crowd
requires many preparations; from
analyzing your target audience, to
planning and
drafting your speech up to the
rehearsing part. The key therefore is
to come prepared. Be yourself while
you are on stage and speak in the
way that you will be easily
understood by your audience.
You will know more about this in
the succeeding modules about the
“Principles of Speech Delivery”.
