Theory of phonetics

the speaker’s attitude to it. The thing he is talking about may satisfy him or not, please him or not, may elicit his positive or negative response, his emotions. This factor forms a complex bundle with another characteristic feature of oral speech. Its almost common linguistic realization is intonation varieties which can be numerous like varieties of attitudes and emotions an individual can express in various life situations. Subjective colouring of oral speech is one of its most integral characteristics.
3) Nature of participation in the language event results in three possible varieties (the form of communication):

• 
  a monologue;
  
• 
  a dialogue;
  
• 
  a polylogue.
  

Monologuing is the speaking by one individual in such a way as to exclude the possibility of interruption by others. Dialoguing (conversing) is speaking in such a way as to invite the participation of others. It is quite possible for one person to communicate with another and to the only speaker. Similarly two people can monologue at each other. Polyloguing is the participation (speaking) of several people at one and the same time as to convey their personal point of view on this or that topic, sometimes their participation is conditioned by the necessity to react to a speaker’s assumption . It may result in all kinds of discussion, dispute, quarrel, scandal and so on. Still every member of polylogues fulfills the same function as in dialogues. The length of the utterance is considered to be a relevant feature from the linguistic point of view. Monologues are usually more extended. They are also characterized by more phonetic, lexical grammatical cohesion. This means that monologues usually have more apparent continuity and self-containedness than conversation. Phonetic organization of any of the three varieties cannot be analogical since each kind is characterized by specific usage of language means of all the three levels.
4) The process of speaking is very often recognition of social roles and relation-ship. The interaction of individuals depends on their learning and accepting the roles of social behaviour. So to come in terms with how roles and relations are realized in language we speak of
