Principles of Effective

Speech Writing

How do you think one should prepare for his or her speech? What will you

consider in selecting the topic for your speech? In this section, you will learn

techniques and methods on how to make your own speech. We are going to look

closely at how you can write a speech masterpiece, starting with how you should

analyze your target audience up to refining your speech as to logical organization, word choice and grammatical correctness.

What’s In

In the previous module, you discovered how a shift in speech context, speech style, speech act and communicative strategy affect the language form, duration of interaction, relationship with the speaker and the roles and responsibility of the speaker, content of message and delivery.

Your previous activities let you explore the importance of the speech in variety of occasions and settings. This time, you will discover the complexities of speech communication in formal writing through writing a speech.

What’s New

In this lesson, we will use what you have learned in the previous module in a

more formal context. You will start to compose your formal speech, but before that,

answer this given activity by writing TRUE if you think the statement is correct. If

not, write FALSE.

___________1. I should consider my audience’s age, interest and gender when writing

my speech.

___________2. I should use impressive words so that my audience will be amazed.

___________3. I should research on what my audience know about the topic.

___________4. I should use jargon in my speech to make it more reliable.

___________5. I should use varied methods to make my topic more organized.

___________6. I should never consider the length of my speech.

___________7. I should consider my audience’s attention span in writing my speech.

___________8. I should use catchy starter to get my audience’s attention.

___________9. I should edit my work only because of grammatical errors.

__________10. I should never ask someone to proofread or comment on my speech.

What is It

A good speech requires days or even weeks of preparation depending on the

topic and the availability of materials needed. While many are expert enough to

compose their speech a night before they deliver it, seldom that it became very

successful for a beginner writer. For this reason, careful planning is important to come up with a well-written speech.

When planning for writing your speech, you should consider the following

principles:

####### The Introduction

The introduction is the most crucial part of the speech. It is generally only 10 to 15 percent of the time the speaker spends speaking. According to Wrench (2012), a good introduction serves five functions: (1) you should be able to gain audience attention and interest, (2), it states the purpose of your speech, (3) it establishes your credibility, (4) it should provide reasons for your audience to listen and (5) your introduction should preview the main idea of your speech.

####### The Body

The body of the speech is the core part of the speech that addresses the main ideas and principles of the speech. It consists of the main points. This is presented using methods of organization (Flores 2016).

To achieve logical organization, transitional devices may be used to

  1. Chronological Order - A historical or time approach which is from the past to the present. It presents idea in time order.

Example : The significant development of the province of Laguna from Spanish period to present.

  1. Spatial/Geographical Order - Going from one place to another, from one direction to another

Example : Traveling around the wonders of Batanes islands

  1. Causal Order - It involves a discussion of both cause and effect of an issue.

Example : The Fish Kill in Laguna de Bay

  1. Categorical/Topical Order - It divides the topic into subtopics based on the importance or interest value or simply because the topic requires it.

Example : Importance of promoting the Reduce, Reuse and Recycle program

  1. Comparison and Contrast Order - It presents comparison and contrast of two or three points.

Example : Comparison between living in the city and life in the province.

  1. Problem-Solution Order - It explains the problem and suggests a possible solution.

Example : Cleaning up Laguna de Bay

Make sure that you move smoothly from one paragraph to another. Transitional words are used to connect words, phrases or sentences. They help the reader to move from one idea to the next to build coherent relationships within the text.

Study the following table showing examples of different transitional words and their functions.

Function Examples

####### Addition Again, also, and, and then, besides, equally important, further,

furthermore, in addition, in the first place, moreover

####### Comparison Also, in the same way, likewise, similarly

####### Contrast Although, yet, but, despite that even so, even though, for all

that, however, in contrast, in spite of, instead, nevertheless, notwithstanding, on the contrary, on one hand-on the other hand, otherwise, regardless, still, though

####### Emphasis certainly, indeed, in fact, of course

####### Example or

####### Illustration

as an illustration, for example, for instance, namely, specifically, that is, to illustrate

####### Summary

####### or

####### Conclusion

all in all, altogether, as has been said, finally, in brief, in conclusion, in short, in simpler terms, in summary, on the whole, to summarize

####### Time

####### Sequence

after a while, afterward, again, and then, as long as, at last, at length, at that time, before, earlier, eventually, finally, first, formerly, in the past, last, lately, meanwhile, next, now, presently, second, shortly, simultaneously, since, so far, soon, still, subsequently, then, thereafter, until, until now, when

####### The Conclusion

After writing the body of your speech following the methods of organization, the last thing that you need to work on is how to end it.

The conclusion functions as the summarizer of the entire speech. The conclusion has to be written using different strategies (Tandoc, 2016).

 Present a summary  Repeat the key ideas presented  Repeat the central idea for emphasis  Go back to the strategy used in the introduction  Signal the end of your speech  End with an impact  Thought-provoking questions  Humor  Quotation  A call for action  A connection to a larger context

Identification: Directions : Identify the terms being referred to in the following statements. Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.

_______________ 1. It is one of the most important aspects in developing your speech

because you can tailor-fit your speech content and delivery to your listeners.

_______________ 2. In speech writing, it can be defined as all aspects of your writing that help the reader move smoothly from one sentence to the next, and from one paragraph to another.

_______________ 4. Its first major aim is to gain the attention of your audience and to make them interested in what you have to say.

_______________ 5. It functions as the summarizer of the entire speech content.

_______________ 6. When dealing with speech duration, the average length of speech according to many experts is around____ minutes.

_______________ 7. These terms should be avoided in writing a speech because these are intended only for a specific group of people and can never be understood by the general audience.

time order.

_______________ 9. It is a method in organizing a speech which divides the topic into subtopics based on the importance or interest value.
