You repeatedly mentioned it.JohnDubYa said:Use the active voice. Think about what you are going to say before saying it. Use the active voice. Do not begin your speech with a joke. Use the active voice. Pause and shift gears after the first 20 minutes. Use the active voice.
Did I mention that you should use the active voice?

To be persuasive, a speech should be extemporaneous. This means it should be somewhere between pre-written and ad-lib. To make an extemporaneous speech, basically you make an outline you want to follow, and than practice making up the text of your speech as you follow the outline. This way, your speech will not be as dull as a pre-written speech, and it will not be as rambling as a completely ad-lib speech. You will be making your words up as you go along, but each sub-point you make will be part of the logical outline that you pre-wrote and therefore nothing should seem too out of place or off-topic.TenNen said:Yes, i am trying to make one, true.

When giving an eloquent speech, there are several factors that should be considered. First, it is important to have a clear and organized structure for your speech. This includes a well-defined introduction, body, and conclusion. Second, you should consider your audience and tailor your language and delivery to best resonate with them. Third, using rhetorical devices such as metaphors, analogies, and repetition can enhance the impact of your speech. Fourth, practice and preparation are key to delivering an eloquent speech. And finally, confidence and passion in your delivery can greatly enhance the effectiveness of your speech.
Body language and nonverbal cues can greatly impact the delivery of an eloquent speech. They can convey confidence, sincerity, and passion to the audience. Positive body language, such as maintaining eye contact, using hand gestures, and standing with good posture, can help engage the audience and enhance the overall impact of the speech. On the other hand, negative body language, such as avoiding eye contact, fidgeting, and slouching, can detract from the message and decrease the effectiveness of the speech.
Vocal delivery is crucial in an eloquent speech. The tone, volume, and pace of your voice can greatly impact the audience's perception of your message. Speaking with a clear and confident voice can help grab the audience's attention and keep them engaged throughout the speech. Varying your tone and pace can also help emphasize key points and maintain the audience's interest.
While formal language can add a certain level of sophistication to a speech, it is not always necessary to use it. The most important aspect of an eloquent speech is to effectively convey your message to the audience. This can be achieved through both formal and informal language, as long as it is appropriate for the audience and the topic at hand. It is important to strike a balance between using language that is too formal and may come across as pretentious, and language that is too informal and may not be taken seriously.
Nervousness is a common feeling when giving a speech, but it can be overcome with practice and preparation. Before giving the speech, take deep breaths and try to relax your mind and body. Remind yourself that you have prepared and are knowledgeable about the topic. Visualizing a successful delivery can also help alleviate nervousness. It can also be helpful to start your speech with a joke or a personal anecdote to help ease the tension. Lastly, remember that mistakes are normal and can even make the speech more relatable to the audience.
