IV. DISCUSSION

VERBAL AND NON VERBAL

Verbal strategy is the use of one's voice in a form of word to effectively deliver a speech. A
speaker should consider volume, tone, rate of delivery, projection, articulation, pronunciation, and
pausing. Verbal delivery enhances understanding of your message.
Examples of this are the following: talk, speech, cheering, shouting, and singing. Issuing commands
by voice and offering questions by voice are also included.
On the other hand, nonverbal strategy includes facial expression, gestures, body language,
posture and eye contact.
1. Facial Expressions- Facial expressions are responsible for a huge proportion of nonverbal
communication. The look on a person’s face is often the first thing wesee, even before we hear
what they have to say.
2. Gestures- Deliberate movements and signals are an important way to communicate meaning
without words. Common gestures include waving, pointing, and using fingers to indicate numeric
amounts.
3. Body Language- Research on body language has grown significant since the 1970’s, but popular
media have focused on the over- interpretation of defensive postures, arm- crossing and leg-
crossing.
4. Posture- Posture and movement can also convey a great deal of information
5. Eye contact- Visual contact with another person's eyes.

SONNET
A sonnet shows two related but differing things to the reader in order to communicate something about
them. Each of the three major types of sonnets is reflective on this in a somewhat different way. The three
basic types of the sonnet are the Italian sonnet, the Spenserian sonnet and the English sonnet.

THE ITALIAN SONNET

The Italian sonnet is divided into two sections by two different groups of rhyming sounds. The first 8
lines is called the octave and rhymes:
a b b a a b b a
The remaining 6 lines is called the setset and can have either two or three rhyming sounds, arranged a
variety of ways:
c d c d c d
c d d c d c
c d e c d e
c d e c e d
c d c e d c
The exact pattern of setset rhymes is flexible. The one thing that is to be avoided in the setset is ending
with a couplet (dd or ee), as this was never allowed in Italy. In actual practices, setsets are sometimes
ended with couplets.
Example of Italian Sonnet:
 When I Consider How My Light Is Spent .The Final Fight
By  John Milton By: Leny Roovers
When I consider how my light is spent, In cold earth’s arms your body came to rest.
Ere half my days, in this dark world and wide, The fight had lasted years and winning swayed,
And that one Talent which is death to hide as bleeding cuts were caused by poisoned blades-
Lodged with me useless, though my Soul more bent you parried thrusts no longer played in jest.
To serve therewith my Maker, and present The venom spread within your tissues’ cells,
My true account, lest he returning chide; deformed the life-force, till it stopped to flow-
“Doth God exact day-labour, light denied?” the marrow in your bones refused to grow-
I fondly ask. But patience, to prevent deteriorated, in between bright spells.

That murmur, soon replies, “God doth not need Each point you made, was cheered on by the crowd,

2
 Either man’s work or his own gifts; who best each wound received we mourned, in closing ranks;
Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state each little death survived, would make you proud,
Is Kingly. Thousands at his bidding speed your smile and laughter cheerful, filled with thanks.
And post o’er Land and Ocean without rest: Yet gone are silver linings from your clouds-
They also serve who only stand and wait.” the pistols given, fired only blanks.

THE SPENSERIAN SONNET

The Spenserian sonnet, invented by Edmund Spenseras. It has the pattern
a b a b b c b c c d c d e e
The “abab” pattern sets up distinct four line groups, each gives a specific idea. However, the overlapping
a,b,c, and rhymes form the first 12 lines into a single unit with a separated final couplet. The three
quatrains then develop three distinct but closely related ideas, with a different idea in the couplet.
Examples of Spenserian Sonnet:
One Day I Wrote her Name upon the Star Sonnet LIV
By: Edmund Spenser By: Edmund Spenser
One day I wrote her name upon the strand, Of this worlds theatre in which we stay,
But came the waves and washed it away: My love like the spectator ydly sits
Again I wrote it with a second hand, Beholding me that all the pageants play,
But came the tide, and made my pains his prey. Disguysing diversly my troubled wits.
"Vain man," said she, "that dost in vain assay, Sometimes I joy when glad occasion fits,
A mortal thing so to immortalize; And mask in myrth lyke to a comedy:
For I myself shall like to this decay, Soone after when my joy to sorrow flits,
And eke my name be wiped out likewise." I waile and make my woes a tragedy.
"Not so," (quod I) "let baser things devise Yet she, beholding me with constant eye,
To die in dust, but you shall live by fame: Delights not in my merth nor rues my smart:
My verse your vertues rare shall eternize, But when I laugh she mocks, and when I cry
And in the heavens write your glorious name: She laughs and hardens evermore her heart.
Where whenas death shall all the world subdue, What then can move her? if nor merth nor mone,
Our love shall live, and later life renew." She is no woman, but a senceless stone

THE ENGLISH OF SHAKESPEAREAN SONNET

The English sonnet has the simplest and most flexible pattern of all sonnets, consisting of 3 quatrains of
alternating rhyme and a couplet:
a b a b
c d c d
e f e f
g g
Not only is the English Shakespearean sonnet is the easiest in terms of its rhyme scheme, calling for only
pairs of rhyming words rather than groups of 4, but it is the most flexible in terms of the placement of the
volta.
Examples of Shakespearean Sonnet
Sonnet XVIII Sonnet XXXVI
By: William Shakespeare By: William Shakespeare

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Let me confess that we two must be twain,
Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Although our undivided loves are one:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, So shall those blots that do with me remain,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date: Without thy help, by me be borne alone.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, In our two loves there is but one respect,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed, Though in our lives a separable spite,
And every fair from fair sometime declines, Which though it alter not love's sole effect,
By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed: Yet doth it steal sweet hours from love's delight.
But thy eternal summer shall not fade, I may not evermore acknowledge thee,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st, Lest my bewailed guilt should do thee shame,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade, Nor thou with public kindness honour me,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st, Unless thou take that honour from thy name:
   So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,    But do not so, I love thee in such sort,
   So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.    As thou being mine, mine is thy good report.

VOICES OF VERBS
Verbs have two choices; active and passive voice. While verb tenses have to do with the time of the
actions, the voices of the verb pertain to the way the verbs function with respect to the subject of the
sentence.
When the verb is active, the subject performs the action. Active voice is also called the normal voice of
the verb.
Examples: The wind blows hard.
The lead actor helps the new stunt man.
I receive the award personally.
When the verb is passive, the subject is the recipient of the action. The object of the active verb becomes
the subject of the passive verb.
Examples: The movie was watched mostly by young girls.
The new television was bought by my eldest brother.
The plaques were donated by the town mayor.

ACTIVITY 3
Directions: Write A if the sentence is in Active voice and P if the sentence is written in the Passive voice.
1. The big bone was taken by the dog.
2. The fish was eaten by the Siamese cat.
3. Layla left with her cousins.
4. The referee called a foul.
5. His mother baked cookies.
6. The captain abandoned the ship.
7. The poster was created by the crew.
8. The lemonade was prepared by my eldest sister.
9. I come to say goodbye.
10. The email message was sent by an anonymous writer.

ADVERB
An adverb is an article of speech that modifies other adverbs, verbs, adjectives, clauses, or sentences.
When an adverb is used in a sentence, it will answer one of the following questions:
 How?  Why?  How much?
 When?  In what way?  In what condition?
 Where?  How often?  To what degree?

Although you can recognize some adverbs by their "ly" endings, there are many, many adverbs that do
not require an "ly" ending. For example, consider the following sentence: I went to the store today. In this
sentence, the word "today" is an adverb.

ADVERB CATEGORIES
It's helpful to consider categories of adverbs to get a better understanding of them.

1. Adverbs of time- answer the question of when, and include such adverbs as early, never, and
tomorrow to name a few.

RHETORIC – INDUCTIVE AND DEDUCTIVE REASONING

Rhetoric is an art of argumentation and discourse. It is the art and skill of convincing others of what
we believe through writing and speaking. The earlier known practice of rhetoric came from the Golden
Age of Greece when philosophes discussed logos, ethos and pathos. Writers in the Roman Empire later
adapted and modified these Greek ideas. Across the centuries, medieval civilizations have also adapted
modified the theories of the Greek rhetoric. Even today, many consider the study of rhetoric a central part
of liberal arts education.

What are logos? Logos is the use of logical arguments such as induction and deduction. Inductive
reasoning takes a specific case or facts and then draws conclusions from then. Inductive reasoning must
be based on a sufficient amount of reliable evidence. Deductive reasoning begins with a generalization
and then applies it to a specific case. The generalization you start with must have been on a sufficient
amount of reliable evidence.

Example of inductive reasoning:

John came from America and Americans are tall. Therefore, John is tall.

Oranges make my skin glow and orange is a fruit. Therefore, all fruits make my glow skin.

Lions are ferocious animals and lions live in the wild. Therefore, animals in the wild are ferocious.

Jasmine is a standout student and Jasmine belongs to Section A. Therefore, all students in section A
are all standout.

Lemon is rich with vitamin C and lemon is a citrus fruit. Therefore, all citrus fruit are rich with
vitamin C.

Example of deductive reasoning:

All African people are black, Banda is an African. Therefore, Banda is black.

Giant creatures of the sea are known to be gentle, whale shark is a giant of the sea. Whale shark is a
giant of the sea. Therefore, whale sharks are gentle.

Animals and humans alike have venom, Greg is a human. Therefore, Greg has venom.

All mathematics subjects deal with numbers, algebra is a branch of mathematics. Therefore, algebra
deal with numbers.

Filipino singers are emotional singers and Sharon Cuneta is a Filipino. Therefore, Sharon Cuneta is
an emotional singer.
