  1. CONTROL of VOCAL NONVERBALS Vocal nonverbals send clear messages to receivers. When sending messages, it is crucial to be ever mindful of vocal nonverbals & the role they play in the communication process.

  2. VOLUME • The measure of how loud or soft your voice is • Should be your FIRST concern as a sender; if people can’t hear you, what’s the point? • Vary volume to show emphasis or emotion. • Intensity: how much air you release with each word. • Can be increased by releasing more air • Can convey emotions in situations where volume cannot be loud

  3. Tips: • Vary volume and intensity to emphasize key words or phrases • Use these vocal tools appropriately (Example: Don’t yell if it doesn’t match your message, that is contradicting)

  4. RATE • how quickly or slowly you speak • different rates communicate different emotions • RAPID: anger, confusion, impatience • SLOW: caution, fatigue, hopelessness, insincerity • Pauses: the silences you skillfully add between words, phrases, & sentences add drama and emphasis to your speech. • Framing: pausing slightly before and after a word or phrase to add emphasis & meaning.

  5. Pitch • Pitch: the highness or lowness of your voice. • Inflection: changing the pitch of your voice • monotony: using one tone; a lack of inflection • up-talker: a sender who ends phrases or sentences in an upward inflection, like they’re always asking a question

  6. Tone • A quality or character of sound • A particular way of sounding of the voice as expressive of some meaning, feeling, spirit • Stress of voice on a syllable of a word • An accent peculiar to a person, people, region

  7. Inflection can change the meaning of your words… Ican’t believe you said that. I can’tbelieve you said that. I can’t believe you said that. I can’t believe you said that. I can’t believe you saidthat. I can’t believe you said that.

  8. ARTICULATION • how clearly and precisely you speak • synonyms: enunciation, pronunciation • Common articulation problems: • dropping word endings…going becomes goin’ • running words together…kinda, sorta, wanna • substituting sounds…pen becomes pin, -ing becomes –een (walkeen, talkeen, runneen, playeen) • adding sounds…library becomes liberry

  9. IMPROVING ARTICULATION • Always speak with your head up & do not cover your mouth. Make sure the receiver(s) can see your face. • Open your mouth wide when you speak & extra wide if giving a speech! • Rehearse your speeches aloud to ensure that you know how to properly pronounce EVERY word. Practice unfamiliar or problem words repeatedly so you don’t mispronounce or struggle to pronounce difficult words.
