Types of Communicative Strategies

Nomination / Headline 1
A speaker carries out nomination to collaboratively and productively establish a topic.
Basically, when you employ this strategy, you try to open a topic with the people you are
talking to.

Example:
"Do you have anything to say?"
"Have you heard the news about the most pretty girl in school?"
"Now, its your turn to ask questions."
"Does that make sense to you?"

Restriction / Headline 2
Restriction in communication refers to any limitation you may have as a speaker.

Example:
In your class, you might be asked by your teacher to brainstorm on peer pressure.
When you were asked to deliver a speech in a specific language.

Turn-taking / Headline 3
Turn-taking pertains to the process by which people decide who takes the conversational
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.

Example:
Can we all listen to the one who talk in front of us?
"Excuse me? I think we should speak one at a time, so we can clearly understand what
we want to say about the topic."
"Go on with your ideas. I'll let you finish first before I say something."

Topic control / Headline 4


Topic control covers how procedural formality and informality affects the development of
topics in conversation. This only means that when a topic is initiated, it should be collectively
developed by avoiding unnecessary interruptions and topic shifts.

Example:
"One of the essential lessons I gained from the discussion is the importance of sports
and wellness to a healthy lifestyle."

Topic shifting / Headline 5


Topic shifting, as the name suggests, involves moving from one topic to another. In other
words, it is where one part of a conversation ends and where begins.

Example:
"By the way, there's a new shop opening at the mall"
"In addition to what you said about the beautiful girl is that she is also smart."

Repair
Repair refers to how speaker address the problems in speaking, listening, and comprehending
that they may encounter in a conversation.

Example:
"Excuse me, but there are 5 Functions of Communication not 4."
"I'm sorry, the word should be pronounced as Pretty not priti."

Termination
Termination refers to the conversation participants’ close-initiating expressions that end a
topic in a conversation.

Example:
"Best regards to your parents! See you around!
"It was nice meeting you. Bye!"
"That is all for today class, goodbye!"
