PARALINGUISTICS

Paralinguistics features are non-verbal vocal cues that help you to give urgency to your voice. Your voice is your trademark; it is that part of yourself that adds human touch to your words.

Below mentioned points can be considered as characteristics of Paralinguistics

Quality:

Quality is a characteristic thatdistinguishes one voice fromanother.

Volume:

Volume is the loudness or the

softness of the voice.

Pace/Rate:

Rate is the number of words which

you speak per minute. The normal

rate is from 120 to 150 words per

minute.

Pitch:

Pitch refers to the number of

vibrations per second of your voice.

Articulation:

Speakers should be careful not to

slop, chop, truncate, or omit

sounds between words or

sentences.

Pronunciation:

If articulation means speaking out

all the sounds distinctly, then

pronunciation requires us to speak

out sounds in way that is generally

accepted. The best way is to follow

British Received Pronunciation.

Voice Modulation:

While intonation refers to the tonalvariations, modulation pertains tothe way we regulate, vary, or adjustthe tone, pitch, and volume of thesound or speaking voice.

Pauses:

A pause is a short silence flanked

by words. A pause in speaking lets

the listener reflect on the message

and digest it accordingly.
