1. What is the topic of the speech? How about its message?

- The subject of the speech was the speaker's experience at his friends'
weeding. The speaker's speech's main theme was about love, acceptance,
and being culturally diverse. At first, I assumed his talk would conclude in a
humorous manner since he delivers his speech full of amusement and jokes;
he utilizes this speaking approach to communicate his message naturally and
keep his listeners interested without boredom. It was an unusual and
entertaining approach for him to share his perspective, since many of us have
felt bored and uninterested while listening to a personal story. Who would
have guessed that despite being humorous and funny at first, he would end it
with a very life changing speech that allows us to realize that even in a
simple act of gesture in our daily life, we can seek ways to connect and
accept one another because culturally diverse is more influential and
interesting because you can explore and learn from each other's culture,
traditions, and beliefs.

2. How did the speaker use the tone, volume/voice modulation, phrasing/stop to
make his speech more interesting?
- The speakers used voice modulation and tonality in a subjective way; for
example, during storytelling, I noticed that at every climax of the story, he
would make his voice tonality in a funny way or he would intensify his voice
to deliver his jokes naturally without even trying hard to relate it to his
listeners, and during describing, he would incorporate his voice and gestures
to fully synchronize them in order to make his speech more interesting and
believable. And his phrasing was carefully thought out and modified to pique
his audience's interest in the following portion of the narrative.
