Frozen is the highest form of communication,
identified as fixed speech. It is specific in form as it
uses complex grammatical sentence structure and
vocabulary known by experts in a particular field.
Formal is used normally in writing rather than in
speaking, thus, eliciting a more formal kind of
speech. Use of ellipsis, contractions, and qualifying
adverbials is eliminated. Typically, it is
unidirectional and informative, but just pure
information can sometimes be dull, therefore it’s
occasionally persuasive, too.
Consultative is also called unplanned speech
because it allows the speaker to use the participation
and feedback of the listener. It is bidirectional or
sometimes multi-directional in nature wherein the
speaker supplies the necessary information and the
listener participates continuously.

Casual employs a free and easy participation of


both the speaker and listener. It is also called
informal style since it is common among peers and
friends. It is multi-directional and typically spoken
in nature by people who belong in the same group
or team, but it can also be used in writing, text
messaging, emails, or online chats.
Intimate style is private and practiced in dialogs
between very close individuals leading to a high
chance of nonverbal communication. Bidirectional
and typically spoken in nature, it can also be used in
writing, text messaging, emails, or online chats with
close family members and close friends. Similar to
casual style, it also employs free and easy
participation of both the speaker and the listener.
