Types of Communicative

Strategy
Lesson 5
Types of Communicative Strategy
1. Nomination - a speaker carries out
nomination to collaboratively and productively
establish a topic
- basically, you try to open a topic with the people you
are talking to
- when beginning a topic, you may start off with news
inquiries and news announcements as they promise
extended talk
Types of Communicative Strategy
2. Restriction – refers to any limitation you may
have as a speaker
- it confines you as a speaker and limit what you can
say
Remember to always be on point and avoid
sideswiping from the topic during the conversation to
avoid communication breakdown.
Types of Communicative Strategy
3. Turn- taking – pertains to the process by
which people decide who takes the conversational floor.
-the primary idea is to give all communicators a
chance to speak
Remember to keep your words relevant and reasonably
short enough to express your views or feelings.

To acknowledge others, you may employ visual


signals like a nod, a look, or a step back. Accompanied
with spoken cues such as, “What do you think?” or “
You wanted to say something?”
Types of Communicative Strategy
4. Topic Control – covers how procedural
formality or informality affects the development of topic
in conversations
- when topic is initiated, it should be collectively
developed by avoiding unnecessary interruptions and
topic shifts
You can make yourself actively involved in the
conversation without overly dominating it buy using
minimal responses like “Yes,” “Okay,” “Go on”; asking
tag questions to clarify information briefly like “You
are excited, aren’t you?”, “It was unexpected, wasn’t it?”;
even by laughing.
Types of Communicative Strategy
5. Topic Shifting – involves moving from one
topic to another
- it is where one part of a conversation ends and
where another begins
-make sure that the previous topic was nurtured
enough to generate adequate views
“By the way…”
“In addition to what you said…”
“Which reminds me of…”
Types of Communicative Strategy
6. Repair – refers to how speakers address the
problems in speaking, listening and comprehending that
they may encounter in a conversation
-the self-righting mechanism in any social
interaction
Speakers will always try to address and correct if there
is a problem in understanding the conversation.
Types of Communicative Strategy
7. Termination – refers to the conversation
participants’ close-initiating expressions that end a topic
in a conversation
- most of the time, the topic initiator takes
responsibility to signal the end of the discussion as well
