How to understand the art of oral expression in speech

The understanding of the art of oral expression is as follows:

Speech is a language art, its main form is "speaking", that is, the use of sound language and the pursuit of the expressiveness of words and the appeal of the voice, but also supplemented by "acting", that is, the use of facial expressions, gestures, body postures and even all understandable situational language, so that the speech is "artistic", so as to produce a special artistic charm.

Oral expression must be pronounced correctly, clearly and beautifully, fluently, accurately and easily understood, and the intonation must be appropriate, natural and emotional.

1. Accurate and clear, that is, the pronunciation is correct and clear, the tone is appropriate, and the rhythm is natural.

2. Clear and mellow, that is, the voice is loud and clear, sonorous and powerful, and pleasant to the ear.

3. Rich in change, that is, distinguishing priorities and changing with emotional changes.

4. It has the power of communication and penetration, that is, the sound has a certain loudness of strength, so that the audience can listen to it and understand it.

Oral expression can complement verbal expressions. In the same sentence, there are changes in intonation, height, length, and urgency. The tone chosen and used must be appropriate to the content of the thought, in line with the linguistic context, taking into account the effect.

The thoughts and feelings of the appropriate intonation are naturally the naturalness of the speaker's language. The speaker must accurately grasp the speech and emotion before using the intonation correctly.

Its artistry lies in having a unified sense of wholeness and coordination, that is, the various factors in the speech (language, sound, performance, image, time, environment) form an interdependent and coordinated beauty.

At the same time, speech is not simply a real activity, it also has some characteristics of drama, opera, dance, sculpture and other artistic categories, and integrates it with speech to form a speech activity with independent characteristics.

What are the characteristics of a speech?

Reality. This is because speech belongs to the category of practical activities, not to the category of artistic activities, and it is a realistic activity in which the speaker directly and openly states his own ideas and views to the audience through the judgment and evaluation of social reality.

2.Artistry. The artistry here is the art of realistic activity.

Its artistry lies in having a unified sense of wholeness and coordination, that is, the various factors in the speech (language, sound, performance, image, time, environment) form an interdependent and coordinated beauty. At the same time, speech is not simply a real activity, it also has some characteristics of drama, opera, dance, sculpture and other artistic categories, and integrates it with speech to form a speech activity with independent characteristics.

3.Agitation. Without agitation, it cannot be a speech, and whether it is a political speech or an academic speech, it must have a strong agitation spirit.

This is because: All righteous people have a desire to pursue truth, goodness and beauty, and the speaker spreads truth, goodness and beauty, which naturally resonates, motivates and inspires the audience. The speaker uses his fiery feelings to arouse the emotional fire of the audience, which is easy to achieve the purpose of influencing the audience.

The speaker's image, language, emotion, and posture, as well as the structure, rhythm, and plot of the speech, can all capture the audience. The intuitiveness of the speech makes it communicate directly with the audience, and it is easy to infect and impress the audience. It can be said that agitation is a sign of the success of a speech.

4. Instrumentality. Speech is not only a science, but also a tool, a tool for people to communicate ideas. Any idea, any knowledge, any invention and creation can be disseminated with the help of the tool of speech.

It can be said that speech is the most economical, practical, and convenient communication tool, and anyone can use it. In real-life speaking engagements, the following two tendencies are worth noting. First, some speakers only "speak" but do not "act", and only pay attention to the practicality of the speech and ignore the artistry of the speech, making the speech nondescript and dry, thus weakening the effect of the speech.

Second, some speakers blindly "act" excessively, pursuing other artistic performance skills such as cross talk, storytelling, recitation, and storytelling, which dilutes the reality, practicality, and seriousness of the speech, and appears comical and sandwiched, and cannot play the role that the speech should have. Both tendencies must be seriously overcome.

Speech is an art of language, which aims to arouse the emotions of the audience and resonate with the audience, so as to convey the thoughts, opinions, and feelings you want to convey.

Standard Mandarin is a must, of course, some big speakers don't necessarily have standard Mandarin, but it is very important to understand it when communicating with people.

Pay attention to the frustration of the sentence, and it is difficult to succeed when the speech starts like a high-spirited song.

Interaction. Rhetorical questions and cross-examinations are both ways to arouse the audience's thinking and improve the quality of speeches in speeches.

When you forget to write a manuscript, try to follow the past in a sleek language, pick up the manuscript downward, and don't get stuck there because you can't remember the next sentence.
