7. COMMUNICATIVE STYLE is the form of language that the speaker uses and it is characterized by a degree of formality, (Mark Joos, 1976).

8. This speech style is for very close relationships like couples, family, and best friends. It is also used for self-addressed questions or self-talk, etc. Intimate speech is used in conversation between people who are very close and know each other quite well because they have the maximum of shared background information. INTIMATE COMMUNICATIVE STYLE

9. This speech style makes use of words at a minimum. The communicators understand each other even with just a single nonverbal gesture or behavior such as a rising tone of voice, a grunt, or a raised eyebrow. EXAMPLES: Couple talking about their future plans, family sharing ideas, very close friends sharing secrets, etc.

10. This style happens in a two-way participation. It is used in semi-formal situations in which a speaker needs to provide background information. The listener participates by giving feedback. Thus, both the speaker and the listener are active participants. Take note that this style is often used in business or in other professional situations, such as conversations between a doctor and a patient, or a teacher and a student. CONSULTATIVE COMMUNICATIVE STYLE

11. In addition, short responses like I see and Ah may be used to signal that he or she is listening attentively or has understood what was tackled. Titles such as Mr., Ms., Sir, Ma’am, Madam, or Dr. are likely to be used when using this communicative style. This communicative style is the most operational among others. EXAMPLES: regular classroom discussions, doctor-patient, etc.

12. This style uses a language used between friends, peers, colleagues, or family. Most of the ambience with this style is relaxed and very light. And so, the participants may use group language only members of the group can understand. Jargon, slang, or the vernacular language are used. The tone is conversational and interruptions are very common. Also, nicknames are used in addressing one another. CASUAL COMMUNICATIVE STYLE EXAMPLES: phone calls, everyday conversation with friends, chats, inside jokes of friends, etc.

13. - This is the most formal style and is reserved for very formal situations such as during weddings, other religious services or rituals, court proceedings, and other formal ceremonies. This style is used to address or is given before an audience of absolute strangers. It uses prescribed and highly formal language. In this style, statements are learned by heart. Examples are the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem. It is typically - prescribed by law, or it is a ritual that involves certain fixed statements (verbatim) that are never changed. EXAMPLE: Pledges, anthems, marriage ceremonies, laws, etc. FROZEN COMMUNICATIVE STYLE
