GLOCALIZATION PREPARED BY: JOY LOURINCE R. CERNAL,LPT
GLOCALIZATION Glocalization is a combination of the words “globalization” and “localization”. The term is used to describe a product or service that is developed and distributed globally but is also adjusted to accommodate the user or consumer in a local market.
PROSODIC FEATURES OF SPEECH PREPARED BY: JOY LOURINCE R. CERNAL,LPT
PROSODIC FEATURES Prosodic features are features that appear when we put sounds together in connected speech. It is as important to teach learners prosodic features as successful communication depends as much on intonation, stress and rhythm as on the correct pronunciation of sounds .
PROSODIC FEATURES OF SPEECH Pause – as hesitation is a non-fluency feature. Pitch – different speech levels, or intonation, can affect meaning. Stress – or emphasis, precede by a very slight voice. Volume – increase or lowness in loudness. Shows fear or anger. Tempo – or speed, can indicate the difference between.
Much of President John F. Kennedy ‘s pithy 1,366-word inaugural address, delivered on January 20, 1961, was well-written and meaningful, but as often happens, his speech has stood the test of time thanks to one perfect phrase. “And so, my fellow Americans: Ask not what your country can do for you — ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: Ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.”
PROSODIC FEATURES OF SPEECH Again, what are the prosodic features? Why it is important to understand the prosodic features?
Group 1 There’s not a liberal America and a conservative America; there’s the United States of America. There’s not a Black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there’s the United States of America …“We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America. In the end, that’s what this election is about. Do we participate in a politics of cynicism, or do we participate in a politics of hope?” – Barack Obama , 2004 Democratic National Convention keynote address
Group 2 “We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender .” - Winston Churchill , 1940 “We Shall Fight on the Beaches” Speech
Group 3 “It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth .” - Abraham Lincoln1863 Gettysburg Address
Group 4 “Happy in the confirmation of our Independence and Sovereignty, and pleased with the opportunity afforded the United States of becoming a respectable Nation, I resign with satisfaction the Appointment I accepted with diffidence. A diffidence in my abilities to accomplish so arduous a task, which however was superseded by a confidence in the rectitude of our Cause, the support of the Supreme Power of the Union, and the patronage of Heaven .” - George Washington,1783 Resignation Speech
Group 5 “I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed, ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal’ …“ I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character .” - Martin Luther King, Jr.,1963 “I Have a Dream” speech
John 15:12 “My command is this: Love Each other as I have loved you.”
