TYPES OF
COMMUNICATIVE
STRATEGIES
COMMUNICATIVE
STRATEGIES

 Communicative Strategies are plans,


ways, or means of sharing information
which are adopted to achieve a particular
social, political, psychological, or linguistic
purpose.
1. NOMINATION

 applied when you try to open a topic with the people


you are talking to
 a communicative strategy that can also be applied
at any time during an interaction as a way of
continuing the communication
 When this strategy is used, the topic is introduced in
a clear and truthful manner, stating only what is
relevant to keep the interaction focused
1. NOMINATION

Example expressions to use:


 Let’s talk about…
 Do you know…?
 How about…?
1. NOMINATION

Specific examples:
 Let’s talk about the plan for our
thanksgiving activity.
 Do you know something about black
holes?
 How about giving an opportunity for them
to speak?
2. RESTRICTION

 This communicative strategy refers to


any limitation you may have as a
speaker. On some cases of
communication, there are instructions
that must be followed. Those instructions
confine you as a speaker and limit what
you can say.
2. RESTRICTION

 a strategy that constrains or restricts the


Response of the other person involved in
the Communication Situation. The
Listener is forced to respond only within a
set of categories that is made by the
Speaker.
2. RESTRICTION

Example expressions to use:


 “May we just talk about this matter and
lay aside other matters?”
 “Please just expound on the topic and
nothing else.”
 “This is the only topic we need to cover
today.”
2. RESTRICTION

Specific examples:
“They say that the Philippine economy is
getting better. Do you agree?”
 In the sample statement you were only
limited by answering either with a Yes or
a No response.
2. RESTRICTION

Specific examples:
“That arrest move was a disaster waiting
to happen. Do you agree?” (Yes/No)
3. TURN-TAKING

 This communicative strategy pertains to


the process by which people decide who
takes the conversational floor. Primarily,
the idea is to give all communicators a
chance to speak.
3. TURN-TAKING

 This requires that each Speaker speaks only


when it is his/her turn during an interaction.
Knowing when to talk depends on watching out
for the verbal and nonverbal cues that signal
the next Speaker that the previous Speaker
has finished or the topic under discussion has
been exhausted and a new topic may be
introduced.
3. TURN-TAKING

 Upon speaking, remember to keep your


words relevant, short, and precise to
express your view and ideas. Be polite
and avoid monopolizing the conversation
and talk incessantly without letting the
others air out their own ideas.
3. TURN-TAKING

 To acknowledge others, you may employ


visual signals like a nod, a look, or a step
back, and you could accompany these
signals with spoken cues such as “What
do you think?” or “You wanted to say
something?”
3. TURN-TAKING

 Specific examples:
 “May I have the floor, sir?”
 “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."
4. TOPIC
CONTROL

 After the Nomination Communicative


Strategy, the interaction is kept going by
using the Topic-Control Communicative
Strategy. This is simply a question-answer
formula that moves the discussion forward.
This also allows the Listener or the other
participants to take turns, contribute ideas,
and continue the discussion.
4. TOPIC
CONTROL

 It should be remembered that when a


topic is initiated, it should be
collectively developed by avoiding
unnecessary interruptions and topic
shifts.
4. TOPIC
CONTROL

 You can make yourself actively involved in


the conversation without overly dominating
it by using minimal responses like “Yes,”
“Okay,” or “Go on”; asking tag questions to
clarify information briefly like “You are
excited, aren’t you?”, “It was unexpected,
wasn’t it?”; and even by simply giving non-
verbal cues.
4. TOPIC
CONTROL

Specific Examples:
 “Proper communication would lead to a
harmonious social environment and we
all do not want misunderstandings, do
we?
 “Misunderstandings happen when there
are barriers in communication. You
4. TOPIC
CONTROL

Specific Examples:
 Your car may break down, too, Luna,
right? So you have to find another
means of getting to school. We all do
not want to be late for class, yes?
5. TOPIC-SHIFTING

 This involves the shift or move from one


topic to another. To simply understand,
topic shifting is where one part of a
conversation ends and where another
begins. This strategy works best when
there is follow-through so that new topic
continues to be discussed.
5. TOPIC-SHIFTING

 When shifting from one topic to another, you


must be very intuitive. Make sure that the
previous topic was nurtured enough to
generate adequate views. You may also use
effective conversational transitions to indicate
a shift like “By the way,” “In addition to what
you said,” “Which reminds me of,” “we can
also include”, and other topic-shifting
expressions.
5. TOPIC-SHIFTING

Specific Examples:
 “By the way, there's a new update
regarding on our new school set-up.”
 “In addition to what you said about our
new mode of learning, is that even
possible?”
5. TOPIC-SHIFTING

Specific Examples:
 If we cannot use the Earth’s resources, our
economies will die. We need to choose: the
economy or the environment.
 “Excuse me, can we talk about Philippine
economy, instead of American economy.”
6. REPAIR

 This communicative strategy refers to


how a speaker addresses the problems in
speaking, listening and comprehending
that they may encounter in a
conversation.
6. REPAIR

 Repair, as a communicative strategy, is


the self-righting mechanism in any social
interaction (Schegloff, et. al., 1977). If
there is a problem in understanding the
conversation, speakers will always try to
address and correct it.
6. REPAIR

 Repeating is a good way of correcting oneself


and gives the Speaker time to do just that.
Recasting means changing the form of a
Message that could not be understood. It
allows the Speaker to say the Message in
another way so that the Listener can
understand what was originally
incomprehensible.
6. REPAIR

Specific Examples:
 "Excuse me, but there are five functions
of communication not four." "I'm sorry,
the word should be pronounced as pretty
not priti."
 “You said perfect. Did I get it right?”
6. REPAIR

Specific Examples:
 When we look at the World Wide Web,
more popularly known as wwww… excuse
me, www, we find that this Information
Highway or rather Superhighway is the
means toward becoming part of a
globally economy, a global economy.
7. Termination

 This refers to the conversation


participants' close-initiating expressions
to end a conversation. It uses verbal and
non-verbal signals or messages that both
speaker and listener send to each other.
7. Termination

 Sometimes the termination is quick and


short. Sometimes it is prolonged by
clarification, further questions, or the
continuation of the topic already
discussed, but the point of the language
and body movement is to end the
communication.
7. Termination

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