situations in which people communicate. We will discuss how a

context and how statements elicit various responses from

Every day we deal with various kinds of conversations.
Many of us wake up checking our phones if there are new
messages in chat groups and email apps. Some have the
confidence to take photos of themselves and posting them on
their Facebook or Instagram accounts with the caption “Woke
up like this” which surely gain reacts and comments from their
friends.
I bet many of us look in the mirror when we leave our
bed and check our faces. If you are living with your family,

Speech context is about the environment where the
communication happens and how the message is relayed
during the process. By knowing the speech context of a
conversation, we can easily understand the message and we
can make feedback clearly and appropriately. This refers to communication that centers in one
person where the speaker acts both as the
sender and the receiver of message.
“The message is made up of your thoughts and
feelings. The channel is your brain, which
processes what you are thinking and feeling.
There is feedback in the sense that as you talk to
yourself, you discard certain ideas and replace
them with others.”
- Hybels & Weaver, 2012, p 16
There are four types of speech context: intrapersonal,
interpersonal, public, and mass communication.
Example:
You spent the night thinking
and analyzing why a student
from the other class talked to you
on the way home and you
decided it probably meant
nothing.
