THE MANUSCRIPT
1. Clarity
- while clarity is important in all communication, we can achieve clarity in speaking by
• Using an oral style
• Choosing concrete rather than abstract words
• Using specific rather than general words
2. Interest
Making our speeches more interesting
• Using words that appeal to any of the five senses : sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell.
• using descriptive language to present a clear and definite word picture of what taking places.
• Using an attention getting technique called the real- taking in term of actual people and places.
3. Appropriateness
• You must always use language appropriate to your audience and the occasion.
WRITING AND REVISING YOUR SPEECH
some suggestion for preparing a manuscript speech:
• Setting time for writing the material
• Make a draft
• When writing the rough draft of your manuscript, skip every other line and leave ample margins.
• Make a concept
• Try to record our speech to revising writing.
• Don’t be afraid of writing too much for your first draft.
• Allow a cooling-off period of at least twenty-four hours before you revise and rewrite the first draft of your manuscript.
• A manuscript should have a specific form.
PRACTICING THE SPEECH
• Allow ample time for practicing.
• Always practice with the same key-word outline, note cards, or manuscript that you plan to use when delivering your speech.
• Always practice your speech as if you were delivering it to your intended audience.
• Go through the entire speech during each practice.
• Do not try to deliver your speech the same way each time you practice it.
• Do not coordinate specific gestures with the exact wording of your speech.
• Practice your speech aloud with the same volume you plan to use in delivering it.
• Practice your speech each time with whatever visual aids you plan to use.
• Time your speech in practice.
• Practice the way you will approach the speaker’s stand at the beginning of the speech and leave it at the conclusion.
• If you access to a tape or video recorder, use it.
• If possible , try to practice at least once in the room where you will be delivering your speech or a similar room.
STAGE FRIGHTCause of stage fright
Stage fright can also occur when there is risk involved in a situation.
for example : Have no difficulty communicating with your boss until you ask for that raise.
Stage fright can be caused by a speaker’s mental or physical health . Suppose a speaker is in a depressed mood because things are not going well at home or elsewhere.
