2. Speech Arts is a discipline that covers speech
composition and public speaking, storytelling, and
literature, poetry, and performance in drama.
Expression arts involves learning vocal range, body
language and physicality, concentrating on the eyes,
interpretation, and emotional perception, in addition
to the structure of expression and coordinating ideas.
3. Speech is the medium by which we communicate
orally; but, through writing and using sign
languages, we can also communicate.
Speech relates to speech sounds interpretation,
preparation, and development and has two
elements: phonetics, and phonology.
4. Phonetics is the study of sounds and deals with the
development, rehearsal and interpretation of
speech sounds (called phones). It deals with the
configurations of the vocal tract used to create
speech sounds (articulatory phonetics), the acoustic
properties of speech sounds (acoustic phonetics),
and the manner of mixing sounds to make syllables,
words and phrases (linguistic phonetics). Phonetics
comprises the knowledge and skills required for the
perception and production of speech sounds.
5. Phonology is a branch of linguistics that deals with the
systematic arrangement of sounds in spoken languages
and signs in sign languages. This requires the
information and skills needed to understand and use
speech sound rules which are linguistically relevant.
Phonology explains the operation of sounds within a
given language and works at the sound structures and
abstract sound units.
6. 'Communication' came from the Latin word
'communico' meaning 'I share' It's described
as a complex process that often involves
reading, writing, listening and talking.
Information is forwarded to the receiver from
source.
7. Communication is the exchange between two parties
of evidence, opinions and, knowledge, ideas.
Communication is two-way because it requires the
recipient's input to complete the process, in this sense
the sender may determine whether or not the recipient
understands the message. To cut it short,
communication is the process of sender-to-receiver
information, with the message being understood by the
receiver.
9. Elements of Communication Process
Message - the body of information that creates the
communication process
Sender - the source of information that has the full
authority to explain or encode the information or
message created.
Channel - the way by which the message may be
conveyed, communicated or carried.
Receiver - the party who accepts the message from the
sender. It also makes feedback out of the information
taken from the source.
Feedback – the response sent back by the receiver to
the sender
