    Lesson 1: Types of Speech Context

    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.”
    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)
    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
    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.
    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.
