Types of speech styles

 Intimate This style is private, which occurs between or among close family
members or individuals
The language used in this style may not be shared in public.
 Casual This style is common to peers and friends.
Jargons, slang, or the vernacular language are used.
 Consultative This style is a standard one. Professional or mutually acceptable
language is a must.
Examples of situation are communication between teachers and
students, doctor and patient, or employers to employees.
 Formal This is used in formal settings. Unlike consultative, this is one way.
Examples are sermons by priest, State of the Nation Address of the
President.
 Frozen This style is frozen in time and remains unchanged.
Common examples are the Preamble to the constitution, Lord’s
Prayer and Allegiance to country of Flag.
