Study Notes

Communicative Strategies

  • Communicative strategies are methods used to overcome language barriers and improve communication, especially helpful for second language learners.

Types of Communicative Strategies

  • Nomination: Introducing a new topic or subject, e.g., "Have you heard about the new Al chatbot?"
  • Restriction: Limiting the response or discussion, e.g., "What do you think about the new AI chatbot, good or bad?"
  • Turn-taking: Managing conversation flow by knowing when to speak and listen, e.g., "Go ahead, you first." or "I'm done. Your turn."
  • Topic Control: Guiding the conversation through questions, suggestions, or changing topics, e.g., "Let's talk about something else. What do you think about the latest movie?"
  • Topic Shifting: Smoothly moving the conversation from one topic to another, e.g., "Speaking of movies, have you seen the new superhero film?"
  • Repair: Addressing communication breakdowns, e.g., "I'm sorry. I didn't quite catch that. Could you repeat it?"
  • Termination: Signaling the end of a conversation, either verbally or nonverbally, e.g., "Well, it was nice talking to you. I'll see you later."
