Oral Language
(Types of Communication)
Oral language is one of the most important skills that students can
master-both for social and academic success. Learners use this skill
throughout the day to process and deliver information, instructions, make
explanations, narrate events, and even interact with peers.
Aside from speech, there are also other ways of expressing what we
want or feel. Our facial expressions and body movements can convey our
thoughts or feelings. Thus, both the speaker and listener must possess
qualities or characteristics to deliver and receive the message with clarity,
accuracy, and conciseness.
Four Types of Communication
1. Verbal communication
2. Nonverbal communication
3. Visual communication
4. Written Communication
Verbal Communication
1. Verbal communication
utilizes the spoken word,
either face-to-face or
remotely. It is essential to
most interactions.
Nonverbal Communication
2. Nonverbal communication
provides some insight into a
speaker's word choice.
These things are often
communicated through facial
expressions, hand gestures,
posture, and even appearance, all of
which can convey something about
the speaker.
Visual Communication
Examples:
• To call someone a lady means more than simply being female.
(Semantics tell us that, if she's a lady, she possesses elegance and
grace.)
• A child could be called a child, kid, boy, girl, son, daughter.
• The word “run” has many meanings- physically running or depart or
go, spent.
Vocabulary (Semantics)
Examples:
“Crash” can mean an auto accident, a drop in the Stock Market, to
attend a party without being invited, ocean waves hitting the shore, or
the sound of cymbals being struck together.
A human can be referred to as a male, female, child, adult, baby,
bachelor, father or mother.
The word “create” can mean build, make, construct, erect, compose or
imagine.
Morphology
Morphology- is focused on the smallest units of meaning within a word, as well
as the rules about how those words are formed including roots, suffixes, and
prefixes. Correct usage of such will give you smooth conversation with others.
Example:
Using eco bag is one simple step to save earth because we can use it again and again.
Better:
Using eco bag is one simple step to save earth because we can reuse it many times.
Grammar (Syntax)
Grammar (Syntax)-The rules of grammar help us decide the order we put
words in and which form of a word to use.
Precision and vivid picture of what we are telling people can be achieved
through rules of grammar as to when, where and how the event happened
and as to how a thing looked like.
Examples:
I will go to the cinema after my work.
I went to the cinema yesterday.
I excitedly went to the biggest cinema in town.
• The underlined words give details on the statements.
Pragmatics
Pragmatics- require the understanding of the social use of language. This
includes social norms regarding conversational turn-taking, personal space,
and appropriate behavior with peers and authority figures in a variety of
common social situations.
Example:
I heart you! - "heart" refers to an organ in our body. However, pragmatically,
"heart" in this sentence means "love"- to "heart" someone means you love him.
Pragmatics
Example:
Will you crack open the door? I am getting hot.
Semantically, the word "crack" would mean to break, but pragmatically we know that the speaker
means to open the door just a little to let in some air.
We ask you to bless everyone who is a part of the online community today, including those at home
with their families, just beginning their work day or still working after hours. May this virtual classroom
be an extension of our physical classroom. We ask that you bless us as teachers and learners, that we
may continue to grow in knowledge and faith through study and prayer.
Bless our endeavors to continue to learn about your word, even when the classroom is not in session.
We pray for those who are ill or otherwise unable to attend. May we all continue to learn and grow in
your light. And Lord, we once again thank you for the privilege of learning from each other.
Thank you for this time together and for these words that will remain with us through out our day. In
Christ’s name, Amen.
