LESSON 4: EMPLOYING
COMMUNICATIVE STYLES INTRODUCTION

How can effective communication happen in different daily interactions?

As humans, we are drawn to one another. We face literally just anyone every day. Most
importantly, we interact with people, from family to relatives to strangers on the streets. Thus, we
need to be in for a clear and effective communication to create and maintain genuine
relationships and atmosphere with them. When communication is effective, it leaves the sender
and the listener both satisfied and feeling accomplished. By delivering messages clearly and
appropriately, there is no room for misunderstanding and conflict.

In this lesson, you will be able to learn and understand the different communicative styles
which will help you to value effective communication more and independently interconnect with
other people.

Let’s take out three important key terms from your previous activity. For the
first term, we have people which can be associated with the word “Tiktokers.”
Second, we have situation, which can be linked to the relationship of the people
involved in the dialogues. Lastly, the word language. What language did the
tiktokers use in each video?

Briefly explain the relationship of these three in determining the

appropriate speech or communicative style in differing situations using the
graphic organizer below.

Time Started: ___________

Time Finished: __________

Did you know that there are appropriate styles to use in communicating with others? Each style has an
appropriate use that is determined by different situations. It would certainly be inappropriate to use language
and vocabulary reserve for a boyfriend or girlfriend in talking with your classmates or teachers. Therefore, the
appropriate communicative style depends upon the people, the topic, the purpose and the location. Now, why
do we have to identify the right style in conversing with people?

Discover and learn about the different communicative styles through reading on
page 234 of your IE for EC book or watching the video lesson by scanning the QR code below.
Afterwards, answer the Activity 6 and Activity 7 on page 235-237 of your book on a 1 whole sheet of paper.
Attach your paper to this module and make sure it will not fall off. These activities are in preparation for your
learning task # 4 and 5.

communicative/speech styles? In bullet points, identify the
different speech styles and enumerate at least 5 situations where
we can use each style with.

READING/VIEWING TASK RUNTIME: 15 MINUTES

Time Started: ___________ Time Finished: __________

In the previous discussions and activities, it was emphasized that language

differ in every communicative situation. Why do you need to control your choice
of words in differing situations? It is because there are terminologies that can only
be understood by people in a certain group. One simple example is the language
you, Zoomers use when conversing with your peer versus when you talk with the
older generation. You can’t communicate with your grandfather using the
abbreviation “TBH” which means “to be honest” in starting off a confession neither
sending him a message containing “OTW” to tell him that you’re actually “on the
way” to his place. Unless he has adapted to your language. That is why we have
this so-called jargon.

JARGON/LINGO INTERNET SLANG EXAMPLE

Special words and phrases that are

used by particular groups of people, especially Mom: Your great aunt just passed away. LOL
in their work:
Military/ legal/ computer/ medical jargon and so on. Peter: Why is that funny?
JARGON VS. SLANG
Mom: It’s not funny peter! What do you mean?
Both jargon and slang are two special types of
language varieties. The main difference between Peter: Mom, lol means laughing out loud!
Jargon and Slang is, Jargon is terminology that is
used in relation to a specific activity, profession, Mom: Oh my goodness! I sent that to everyone
group, or event whereas slang is the use of informal because I thought it meant Lots of Love. I have
words and expressions that are not considered to call everyone back.
standard in the speaker’s dialect or language. One
good example is the internet slang.

JARGON IS LIKE AN “INSIDER” LANGUAGE! ☺

How about you? What’s your future jargon? ☺

In the next activity, find out if you know some formal and informal words that are
especially important in specific field or profession.

TASK 4: NEVER GO OUT OF STYLE! RUNTIME: 60 MINUTES

TASK 4: NEVER GO OUT OF STYLE! Time Started: _____________ Time Finished: _________

Tap into your imagination and create a dialogue using the appropriate jargon and communicative
style for each scenario. You can refer to your word bank and use the terms in your lines. Label each
item with the style employed and explain why do you think you used the correct style on the spaces
next to each scenario.

She really is, darling. I

can’t wait to see her
Isn’t our lil’ angel so grow into a graceful
adorable? lady.

This example uses the intimate speech style. It is

a conversation between husband and wife
talking about their baby. Notice also the line,
“Isn’t our lil’ angel so adorable?” The use of
informal language is evident in the
contraction ‘lil’ for the word ‘little’. There’s
also the endearment, ‘darling’ in the line of
the mother.
