Context
Intrapersonal Context
 refers to communication that centers on 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)
Examples of Intrapersonal Communication

the due dYou felt happy while thinking about how
your teacher ate and you reflected on why this was so.

people… when you engage in interpersonal communication,
you and another person become linked together…
 The personal part means that your unique qualities as a
person matter during interpersonal communication…”

Types
of Speech
Style
According to Joos (1968), there are five speech styles. Each
style dictates what appropriate language or vocabulary should be
used or observed.

1. Intimate – This style is private, which occurs between or among


close family members or individuals. The language used in this style
may not be shared in public.
2. Casual – This style is common among peers and friends. Jargon,
slang, or the vernacular language are used.
3. Consultative – This style is the standard one. Professional or
mutually acceptable language is a must in this style.
Examples of situations are communication between teachers and
students, employers and employees, doctor and patient, judge and
lawyer, or President and his/her constituents.
According to Joos (1968), there are five speech styles. Each
style dictates what appropriate language or vocabulary should be

4. Formal – This style is used in formal settings. Unlike the


consultative style, this is one-way.
Examples are sermons by priests and ministers, State of the
Nation Address of the President, formal speeches, or
pronouncements by judges.
5. Frozen – This style is “frozen” in time and remains unchanged.
It mostly occurs in ceremonies.
Common examples are the Preamble to the Constitution, Lord’s
Prayer, and Allegiance to country or flag.
