Lesson
Using Conditionals in
5 Expressing Arguments
This lesson is designed to help you express your ideas, thoughts, and decisions in life.
You will also learn different types of conditional structures to help you build strong
sentences that empower you to express arguments and convince people that your
opinion about something is correct.
What’s In

In the previous module, you studied the first two type of conditional sentences. Let us
refresh your mind on what you have learned by doing this activity.
Activity 1: The Condition & The Clause
Instructions: Analyze the given situation to discern the possible condition or result, and
then draw/illustrate it. Draw an arrow from the condition to the result. Next, construct
a conditional sentence based on the illustrations. Observe the correct punctuation and
tense of the verb.

Activity 2: Conditional Shopping!


Instructions: You are given a budget of 100 crowns which you can use to buy the
grammatically correct sentences in auction. You deduct the number of crowns spent on
each sentence. Once you have zero budget, you cannot purchase anymore. Crowns
spent on correct sentences will be added and converted as your points, while the unused
crowns and the crowns spent on incorrect sentences will be forfeited.

1. The view was wonderful. If I had had a camera


____________________
with me, I would have taken some photographs.
2. If I went to Italy, I could have learned Italian. ____________________
3. If Aethellaine were my girlfriend, I would take her ____________________
to the moon.
4. If I would be rich now, I would buy and donate ____________________
COVID vaccines.
5. I would have answered your call if I were not busy. ____________________

Processing questions:
1. What makes the sentences wrong?
2. How do you improve these sentences to make them grammatically correct?

What is It

SECOND CONDITIONAL describes imaginary, hypothetical, or unlikely


situations or actions in the present or future. The if-clause uses the simple past tense
to indicate the distance from reality, while the result clause uses would + base form.
Examples:
If he were a millionaire, he would buy you a In reality, he is not a
house. millionaire, so it is
He would buy you a house if he were a millionaire. impossible to buy you a
house.
You might also notice the verb used in the given
example. Basically, the verb, "were", is used when the subject is plural, and was for
singular. However, in the Second Conditional, the subjunctive mood of the verb "to be",
which is "were", should be used regardless of the number of the subject.
THIRD CONDITIONAL describes imaginary or hypothetical situations in the
past. These are impossible to happen because no one can change or alter them.
The if-clause uses the past perfect tense (had + past participle), while would have
+ past participle for the result-clause.
Examples:
If they had spoken a bit slower, I would have understood them.
I would have understood them if they had spoken a bit slower.

The given example describes an imaginary situation in the past which means that
it did not actually happen. What really happened was that they spoke fast, that is why
I did not understand them.

2. How do they feel about each other?

3. What is the type of communicative style used in the dialog?

What is It

What is Communication?
Allen Louis emphasized that communication is the sum of all the things one
person does; when he wants to create understanding the mind of another. It involves
a systematic and continuous process of telling, listening and understanding.
What is Communicative Style?
Communicative style is the speaker’s approach in delivering the message or
information to the audience in a particular situation. It has five types such as Intimate,
Casual/Conversational, Consultative, Formal, and Frozen Communicative Styles.
Here are the first two types of Communicative Style:
1. Intimate Communicative Style
It is usually used among family members, close friends, and couples that show
familiarity and closeness among the speakers.
Language Styles Feelings
• Grammar is unnecessary personal, private, and intimate
• Uses personal language codes
• Does not need complete language
• Certain terms of endearment,
slangs or expressions are shared
• Intimate language may be
something as simple as an inside
joke between two college friends or
a word whispered in a lover's ear

4
Here are some examples of intimate conversations:
• Helping you to express your feelings:
I feel… special, comfortable, affectionate, insulted, misunderstood, alone, etc.
• Opening one’s heart by asking open-ended questions:
Why would you say that way?
• Showing understanding and empathy:
You’re making total sense.
2. Casual / Conversational Communicative Style
This is an informal communication between groups and peers. Casual style is used
in conversation [chats, phone calls and messages] between friends and insiders who have
something to share and have shared background information but do not have close
relations.
Language Styles Feelings
• This style is used in informal • Often very relaxed and focused
language. on just getting the information
• Slangs are quite often used in these out.
instances. • The relationship between speaker
• Slang expression is an informal and hearer is close.
language that consists of words
and expressions that are not
considered appropriate for formal
occasions; often vulgar.

The following are examples of more popular US casual English words/phrases:

CASUAL FORMAL
guy/guys you all; all of you; you
besties best friends
sucks terrible or awful
bring it on I’m ready for it
my bad (admitting guilt over something)
yea/yeah yes
nah/naw no
I dunno I don’t know
I really don’t know/you can decide/I
whatever
don’t have a preference

The following are examples of Informal English:


Situations Casual Lines

Greetings Hi, How are ya?, How’s it going?, How ya doin’?

Making suggestions You know what ya need to do? You gotta…

Showing approval Cool! Sweet! Awesome! Oh, my God that’s great!


Bye!, See ya!, Catch ya’ later!, See you,
Saying goodbye
guys!, I’m outta here!, Later y’all!, Take care now!
Saying good night G’night!, Sleep tight!

5
Here are also some ways that people do in casual conversation:
Use contractions: "That's better," "What're you thinking?" "It's really a nice
one"

Use slang: Old people use slang. Even Shakespeare used slang. Slang differs
in every generation and culture.
Use simplified grammar: In casual conversation, the speaker drops “that”
from clauses.
Example: They say "I thought you were coming” instead of "I thought that you
were coming."

Guidelines in Casual Conversation:


Use casual English with your family and friends. If you speak formally,
these people may feel that you are angry with them.

Speak casually with people that you meet socially. Casual language
sounds friendlier. If a friend introduces someone to you, you should treat
that person like a friend as well.

Use it with people who are working for or serving you if you want to sound
friendly.

Write casually if you are writing for a large audience. The blogs, tweets,
advertisements, and other writing that is intended for a large audience is
usually better when it is published casually.

Importance of Casual Language:

1. Shows your personality


2. Makes others feel comfortable
3. Gives audience a sense of closeness and genuineness

Oh! It’s time to wake up. Of course, again, it’s another sunny Saturday and this will be a

can finish everything at 8am, ready for shower.
To be honest, I really didn’t want to wake up early today but I’m saving money and time for
Saturday sale by Easy Day Store, couldn’t say no for this. Well, this is the only day I can
buy all important grocery items for the kitchen. It’s GCQ, General Community Quarantine
and the people need to follow the guidelines given by the government to avoid getting sick
because of this COVID – 19. Yeah! It’s pandemic time… it’s COVID -19 time. No choice but
need to observe the given guidelines to ensure safety and protection. I’m tired of washing my
hands with soap and feeling uncomfortable while wearing my mask but I’m obedient, need
to do these things.
I dunno what will happen next. I’m confused and scared of what’s happening around the
globe. You know, when I arrived home from the province, I never expected the real scenario
of being lockdown in your own place and couldn’t go somewhere else even visiting our family
doctor for consultation. They might think I have Coronavirus even though it’s just a simple
headache or cough and colds. Oh well, I didn’t imagine these things can happen to us. The
government advised everyone not to visit the hospital as much as possible because of
Coronavirus. So, what to do? Need to follow and take care of oneself to become healthy. But
you know, aside from securing the food for the family, there’s a need to buy liquid soap,
alcohol, sanitizer, etc. Well, wearing mask is a must for everyone. Hello new habits! Bye old
habits!
What happened next? After ECQ, now it’s GCQ, General Community Quarantine. Yeah, it’s
now better because you can go outside without quarantine pass anymore. By the way, I’m
the only one having this quarantine pass for two families. Imagine, how hard each time I go
to the drugstore and market. Yup, need to sacrifice for everyone. By the way, speaking of
sacrifices, I salute all our medical frontliners. Thank you for your love and service for our
country. I really salute you guys.
Well, just like you, I’m just praying to disappear this virus and let’s live in a normal life again.
Many businesses like restaurant, barber shop, boutique and even malls are not allowed to
operate. Many employees suddenly found themselves jobless. Oh, my goodness… feeling
worried. This is not good. You know what ya need to do? All we can do for now are physical
distancing, washing hands with soap, using alcohol or sanitizers, wearing face shield and
the most important one is to pray.
PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! Lord, please guide and protect your people. Amen.

What is It

In this lesson, you will learn the basic Communicative Styles and the features of each
type. Let us study the other three types: consultative, formal and frozen communicative
styles.

1. CONSULTATIVE - This is the third level of language using semi-formal


communication. It is basically unplanned speech and happens in two-way
participation, and the most operational among other styles. The speaker uses the
participation and feedback of the listener. The speaker will supply background
information, while again, the listener participates continuously.

A. Target Audience: speaking with someone who has specialized


knowledge or who is offering advice

B. Language Styles
● Speaker does not usually plan what he wants to say
● Sentences end to be shorter and spontaneous

C. Feelings
● respectful
● may be more casual if the relationship is longstanding or friendly

Examples: regular conversation at schools, companies, group


discussion, teacher-student, doctor-patient, expert-apprentice

How can you be more consultative?


1. Balance questions with insights.
2. Build knowledge-based trust.
3. Keep it conversational and genuine.
4. Take ownership of the conversation.
5. Let feedback guide the process.
6. Offer relevant findings.
7. Listen intently.

2. FORMAL - This is considered to be straightforward speech. There is no


participation from the listener. There is only one-way communication.

A. Target Audience: strangers, older persons, and professional people.

B. Language Styles
• Speaker must frame whole sentences ahead before they are delivered.
• Avoid using slang terminologies
• This type uses formal words and expressions and is mostly seen in writing
rather than speaking.
• It also disallows the use of ellipsis, contractions, and qualifying modal
adverbials.

C. Feelings
• formal and serious
• cold
• objective
• neutral
• rational
• controlled
• effortful
Examples: meetings, speeches, school lessons, court, a corporate meeting, at a

5
swearing in ceremony, in an interview or in a classroom.

Comparison between formal and informal language:


Analyze the two sets of sentences.
Formal She has decided to accept the job.
Informal She’s decided to accept the job. She’s – contracted

We went to Barcelona for the


Formal weekend. We have a lot of things to
tell you.
ellipsis (more likely to
Went to Barcelona for the weekend.
Informal be written or texted
Lots to tell you.
then spoken)

Another examples:

FORMAL INFORMAL
commence start
terminate end
endeavor try

Some tips to raise the formality of your tone:


a. Avoid contractions.
b. Minimize personal pronouns.
c. Use longer sentences.
d. Use elegant words.
e. Use Mr. /Mrs. /Ms. before surname.
f. Use official titles.
g. Avoid slang.
h. Avoid analogies and anecdotes.

What Formal English Can Do for You


Some numerous benefits in mastering formal English:
• Create wonderful first impressions.
• Become more confident, diplomatic and persuasive.
• Make valuable connections.
• Automatically improve your writing skills.
• Deliver better talks and presentations.

3. FROZEN - This is used generally in a very formal setting and the most formal
communicative style for a respectful situation. Also known as fixed speech, it does
not require any feedback from the audience like Shakespearean plays, weddings,
funerals, and more.

A. Target Audience
B. Language Styles
•Usually uses long sentences with good grammar and vocabulary
•The use of language is fixed and relatively static.
•It uses the complex grammatical sentence structure and vocabulary
that are only known by experts in that field.
C. Feelings
•formal
•respectful
Examples: pledges, anthems, marriage ceremonies, laws, etc.

Writing a speech should not give you an impression of difficult writing activity. You
can easily write an incredible speech if you learn the basic speech format and important
things to be considered in speech writing. Before you begin to write, let us first
understand some basic speech terms:
• Speech writing is an important skill with advantages for you, either you are a
student or a professional. It is the art of conveying a message to the audience
through words. Speech writing is like essay writing.
• You need to understand your speech’s purpose, the required length, or the
time limit, and do the audience analysis.
• A speech is an effective medium to communicate your message. It is the way of
communicating ideas and thoughts through talking.
• Public speaking aims to convey one’s ideas logically and provide sufficient
supporting evidence to back the idea
How to Write a Speech Format
The steps to write a speech are similar to essay writing. However, consider your
audience.
The basic speech format consists of three parts: an introduction, a body, and a
conclusion.
I. Introduction • It states the purpose of the speech.
• A good introduction serves as an attention getter, previews
the topic and main ideas, and establishes your credibility
as a speaker (O'Hair, Rubenstein, & Stewart, 2007).
II. Body • The body provides the audience with the major points
and supporting details
• The main points should flow from the speech's goal and
thesis statement.
A. Body Point 1 • Speeches with three main points are common.
B. Body Point 2 • Presenting on few points and providing effective
C. Body Point 3 supporting points to make your speech more memorable.

audience was supposed to have learned

• Remove or change the phrases or lines that sound awkward
• Fix the organization of information.
• Practice in front of the camera or a mirror. It will help you control your
mannerism, breathing, taking pauses, body posture, tone variation, repeated
fillers, eye contact and smiling.
