About the Speaker
===============
Diogo Sousa, Engineering Manager @ Canonical
An opinionated individual with an interest in cryptography and its intersection with secure software development.
5. each person has a unique style of communicating which may
depend not only on his/her linguistic ability but also on his/her
cultural and social context .Some are outspoken: some are more quiet
yet on point. Some always seem formal, while some have a lot of
introduction before getting to the main point. Communication style
refers to the choices people make and the strategies or tools they use in
the process of communication. A style may sometimes depend on the
demand of the communicative situation, as well as on the needs and
requirements of the target recipients of the information.

10. Verbal Communication Styles and Culture
Culture has been defined in many ways. Some commonly applied
definitions view culture as patterned ways of thinking, feeling, and
reacting common to a particular group of people and that are acquired
and transmitted through the use of symbols. Others view culture as a
function of interrelated system that include the ecology ( e.g, the
physical environment , resources and geography, ) subsistence . It is
fair to say that culture includes bot objective and subjective elements.
11. There are TWO Approaches that have been used to describe and
explain cultural dimensions:
1.Value Dimension- Can be defined as an enduring belief that a
specific mode of conduct is socially preferable to an opposite or
converse mode of conduct. Once learned, values are integrated
into an organized system of values that are relatively stable and
serve a number of functions for individual, such as
predisposing them to favor particular ideologies, guiding self-
presentations, influencing how they communicate, and
evaluating and judging other’s decision’s and behavior’s.
12. 2. Thinking Styles or Cognitive Style--can be understood as
a way of thinking that influences how we feel and how we act,
it is how we process and categorize information, how we select
information to store in memory , and how we make inferences
or attributes about causality.
13. Each style has two dimensions: the (1) assertiveness level and the (2)
emotiveness level. which is shown in the Communication Styles Matrix
below.
14. The model, developed by Dr. Eileen M. Rush, shows four different
communication styles (direct, spirited, systematic and considerate), categorized further
into two different dimensions. (level of assertiveness and level of expressiveness). All of
these must be considered because people with different cultural contexts tend to have
varying levels and styles of communication.
The combination of these levels result to the basic communication styles:
Spirited = High Expressiveness + High Assertiveness
Considerate = High Expressiveness + Low Assertiveness
Direct = Low assertiveness +High Assertiveness
Systematic = Low Expressivenosa + Low Assertiveness
15. Tips for People with a Spirited Communication Style
1. Respect decisions and agenda that have been agreed upon, as well as
time limits during meetings or any communicative situation.
2. Try to limit your sharing of personal anecdotes that may take the
discussion off-topic.
3. Make sure you are allowing others to contribute their ideas and
suggestions-and that you are genuinely listening to them.
4. Be certain that any request you make is clear and that you convey the
reason for such request.
5. Communicate your appreciation for others' work and input.
16. Tips for People with a Considerate Communication Style
1. Recognize that other people's opinions about a topic are separate from their
opinions about you.
2 Realize that not everyone is comfortable discussing personal topics with
colleagues.
3. Allow others to open personal matters before asking questions of that nature.
4. Respect your own opinion as you respect that of others.
5. Recognize that you don't have to be friends with everyone, but you should treat
others be treated professionally.
17. Tips for People with a Direct Communication Style
1. Make an effort to listen carefully to others. Avoid interrupting.
2. Allow time for 'chatting' at the beginning of a meeting
3. Recognize that others may also feel the need to express themselves.
4. Recognize that brainstorming can be effective and is not a waste of
time.
5. Take some time to show your appreciation for others' contributions.
18. Tips for People with a Systematic Communication Style
1. Recognize that for good working relationships, consideration for others'
feelings is important.
2. Learn to ask qualifying questions that will help you get the information you
need.
3. Make sure you understand the background of the discussion or scope.
20. Language Varieties
Also called "lects, these refer to the different variants of a language that can be sufficiently delimited from one
another in terms of social, historical, or geospatial factors, thus forming language clusters.
Classifications:
a Pidgin. It refers to a new language that develops into situations where speakers of different languages need
to communicate but do not share a common language. Examples are Chavacano in the Philippines and
Bislama, a language spoken in Vanuatu
b. Creole. It is a pidgin that becomes the first language of the children, or the mother tongue of a certain
community. Examples are the Gullah and the Patwa, is a creole in Jamaica.
c. Regional Dialect. It is not a language that is not distinct from a national language, but rather a variety of a
language spoken in a particular area of a country. Examples are as Cebuano, Waray, Ilocano, and Hiligaynon
in the Philippines..
d. Minority Dialect. This is a variety used as a marker of identity, usually alongside a standard variety, by
the members of a particular minority ethnic group. Examples are the Sinama of the Badjaos in the Philippines
and the London Jamaican variety in Britain.
e. Indigenized Varieties. These are spoken mainly as second languages in former colonies with multilingual
populations. A classic example is Singlish (or Singaporean English)
21. A language registers
is characterized by the way a speaker uses language differently in different social circumstances. These are determined by
such factors as social atmosphere, purpose of communication, audience, and the general context of the discourse.
Generally, language registers can be classified as (1) formal, (2) casual, (a) intimate, (4) frozen, and (5) consultative
a. Formal. The registers are used in professional, academic, or legal settings where communication is expected to be
respectful, uninterrupted, and restrained to specific rules . Slang is never used and contractions are rare.
b. Casual. These registers are used when communicating with friends, close acquaintances, colleagues, and family
members. These are used in birthday parties or family gatherings.
c. Intimate. Intimate language registers are reserved for special occasions, usually between only two people and often in
private. Examples are an inside joke between two high school friends or sweet nothings whispered to your "special
someone."
d. Frozen. It refers to historic language that is intended to remain unchanged.
e. Consultative. It is used in conversations when people are speaking with someone who has specialized knowledge or is
offering advice. Tone is often respectful, such as the use of honorifics or courtesy titles, but may be more casual if the
relationship between or among the communicators is friendly.

variety) is commonly used to refer to any of the overlapping categories of a language
including dialect, register, jargon, and idiolect.
