Learning Objectives:
11. LET’S DISCUSS
Communicative strategies are
techniques on how to deal with
difficulties encountered when
communicating.
Being able to use such strategies make
certain not only the achievement of the
Speech Purpose but also the enrichment
of the communication experience for
both Speaker and Listener.
12. The Seven Communicative Strategies
Is the ability of taking attention of the hearers and trying to
commence, or to begin or nominate or propose speaker’s ideas in
conversation.
Opening a topic (like news inquiries and news announcements as
they promise extended talk.)
1. NOMINATION
Examples:
Hi, how are you?
How’s the weather there?
What’s the latest news?
14. LET’S DISCUSS
A strategy that constrains or restricts the RESPONSE of the other
person involved in the communication situation.
Listener is forced to respond only within a set of categories that is
made by the speaker.
2. RESTRICTION
Examples:
Homily of a priest in a mass
Commencement speaker during graduation
A political talking during the proclamation rally
When teacher says, “Do you agree with the character’s action? Yes
or No.”
16. LET’S DISCUSS
requires that each Speaker speaks only when it is his/her turn during an
interaction.
Knowing when to talk depends on watching out for the verbal and nonverbal
cues that signal the next Speaker that the previous Speaker has finished or the
topic under discussion has been exhausted and a new topic may be
introduced.
It is important that other speakers should be given a time to talk.
3. Turn-Taking
Examples:
In meetings, “May I have the floor, please.”
In debate, speakers do not need to talk at the same time
19. LET’S DISCUSS
This is simply a question-answer formula that moves the
discussion forward. This also allows the Listener or other
participants to take turns, contribute, ideas, and continue the
discussion.
Topic control covers how procedural formality and informality
affects the development of topics in conversation. This only
means that when a topic is initiated, it should be collectively
developed by avoiding unnecessary interruptions and topic
shifts.
4. TOPIC CONTROL
Examples:
I think let’s go back to the topic.
In debate, if a speaker is on the affirmative side, he/she will only talk about
the positive points of the topic.
21. LET’S DISCUSS
Topic shifting, as the name suggests, involves moving from one topic to
another. In other words, it is where one part of a conversation ends and
where another begins.
It is introducing a new topic followed by the continuation of that topic
It is also a strategy that is useful in introducing another topic.
This strategy works best when there is follow-through so that new topic
continues to be discussed.
5. Topic Shifting
Examples:
When someone says, This pandemic crisis is not just a battle about health. It is
a battle on how we manage our emotions.
23. LET’S DISCUSS
Repair refers to how speaker address the problems in speaking,
listening, and comprehending that they may encounter in a
conversation.
It is overcoming communication breakdown to send more
comprehensible messages.
6. REPAIR
Examples:
"Excuse me, but there are 5 Functions of Communication not 4.“
Oh! I’m sorry . I didn’t mean to hurt you. That’s not what I mean.
Watch this
25. LET’S DISCUSS
Termination refers to the conversation of participants’ close-initiating expressions
that end a topic in a conversation.
It uses verbal and nonverbal signals to end the interaction.
It ends the interaction through verbal and nonverbal Messages that both
Speaker and Listener send to each other.
Sometimes the Termination is quick and short. Sometimes it is prolonged by
clarification, further questions, or the continuation of the topic already
discussed, but the point of the language and body movement is to end the
communication.
7. TERMINATION
Examples:
➢ "Best regards to your parents! See you around!
➢ “It was nice meeting you. Bye!"
➢ "That is all for today class, goodbye!"

37. LET’S REFLECT
When you are at home…
Normalize NOMINATING conversation with your loved ones.
To sustain good communication, ask them by adding more open-
ended questions; as much as possible lessen or RESTRICT giving
yes-no questions.
Divide the time equally when talking. TAKE TURN in asking and
answering. Speak as you listen. Do not CONTROL your TOPIC of
conversation only on the things you like or want. SHIFT the flow of
your topic; ask them exciting questions too- everything under the sun!
Open your heart. Speak your words. Be REPAIRED inside and out.
Multiply the beautiful and wonderful words of emotions.
Whisper. Talk. Speak. Communicate. Do not TERMINATE.
