• Termination

11. Communicative Strategies
+Nomination – employed when you
try to open a topic with the people
you are talking to. You may start off
with news inquiries and news
announcements as they promise
extended talk. This could signal the
beginning of a new topic in the
conversation.

12. Communicative Strategies
+Restriction – refers to any
limitation you may have as a
speaker. You are given specific
instruction that you must follow.
These instructions confine you as
a speaker and limit what you can
say.

13. Communicative Strategies
+Turn-taking – pertains to the
process by which people decide
who takes the conversation
floor. There is a code of behavior
behind establishing and sustaining a
productive conversation, but the
primary idea is to give all
communicators a chance to speak.

14. Communicative Strategies
+Topic Control – it is when a topic
is initiated, it should be collectively
developed by avoiding
unnecessary interruptions
and topic shifts. You can say
“Yes,” “okay,” “go on,” or asking tag
questions to be actively involved
without dominating.

15. Communicative Strategies
+Topic shifting – involves moving
from one topic to another. You
have to be very intuitive. Make sure
that the previous topic was nurtured
enough to generate adequate
views. You may say, “by the way,”
“in addition to what you said,”
“which reminds me of,” and the like.

16. Communicative Strategies
+Repair – refers to how speakers
address the problem in speaking,
listening and comprehending that
they may encounter in a
conversation. For example, if
everybody in the conversation
seems to talk at the same time,
give way and appreciate other’s
initiative to set the conversation
back to its topic.

17. Communicative Strategies
+Termination – refers to the
conversation participants’ close-
initiating expressions that end a
topic in a conversation. Most of the
time, the one who initiated the
conversation takes responsibility to
signal the concluding cues. You can
do this by sharing what you learned
or complete the discussion of the
topic.

18. Identify the type of communicative strategy in
each statement.
Activity Time:
+1. “Do you have anything to say?”
+2. “One of the essential lessons I gained from the discussion is the
importance of sports and wellness to a healthy lifestyle.”
+3. “Excuse me? I think we should speak one at a time, so we can clearly
understand what we want to say about the issue.”
+4. “Go on with your ideas. I’ll let you finish first before I say something.”
+5. “Have you heard the news about the latest achievement of our
government?”

19. Identify the type of communicative strategy in
each statement.
Activity Time:
+6. “Hey, how are you? I missed you!”
+7. “Best regards to your parents! See you around!”
+8. “Good to see you. Anyway, I came to visit you because I want to
personally
+offer apologies for what I did yesterday.”
+9. “Sorry, I can’t decide on that now. I am still focused on my writing
+assignment. Let’s talk next time, okay?”
+10. “Now, it’s your turn to ask questions.”

20. +Do you have
any question?
