with this module.

Communication – the imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs (Dictionary.com, 2020)

Frozen - is sometimes called the static register because it refers to historic language or communication that is intended to remain unchanged, like a constitution or prayer (Nordquist, 2020)

Style- a manner of doing something (Oxford English Dictionary, 2020)

Static – not moving or changing (Vocabulary.com, 2020)

something (OED, 2020)

What is It

Frozen Speech Style Have you experienced leading or joining a prayer before your class

starts? Have you sung Lupang Hinirang or recited the Panatang Makabayan during the flag ceremony? If you are a campus journalist, have you declaimed

The Journalist’s Creed? If you have experienced any of those above, you have exhibited frozen

speech style. According to Martin Joos (1967), frozen speech style refers to the highest form of communication style which is used in respectful situations

or formal ceremonies. Richard Nordquist (2020) further defines frozen speech style as historic language or communication that is intended to remain unchanged.

Examples of Frozen Speech Style 1. National Anthem – a patriotic song officially adopted by a country as

expression of national identity (OED, 2020) e. g “Star Spangled Banner” (USA), and “Lupang Hinirang” (Philippines).

2. Patriotic Oath (Panatang Makabayan) and Pledge of Allegiance to the Philippine Flag (Panunumpa ng Katyapatan sa Watawat ng Pilipinas) – are the two national pledges of the Philippines commonly recited at

school flag ceremonies after singing the national anthem (KapitBisig.com, 2020)

3. Prayer – worshipful address to God (Insight from the Scriptures, 2020) e.g. “The Lord’s Prayer,” “Oratio Imperata,” and “Three O’Clock Prayer.”

4. Preamble - is a brief introduction to a speech (Vocabulary.com, 2020) e.g. The Preamble of the 1987 Constitution of the Republic of the

Philippines. 5. Creed –a system of principles and beliefs (Vocabulary.com, 2020) e.g.

“The Journalist’s Creed,” and “Apostles’ Creed.” 6. Wedding Officiant Speech – a speech of the officiating priest or minister

during the wedding e.g. “By the power of your love and commitment, and

the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife! (Danielle, 2019)”

7. Motto - a short sentence or phrase chosen as encapsulating the beliefs or ideals guiding an individual, family, or institution (OED, 2020) e.g.

“Honesty is the best policy.” 8. Oath - a verbal promise to tell the truth e.g. "I swear (or the person taking

the oath may promise) by Almighty God (or the person may name a god recognized by his or her religion) that the evidence I shall give will be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth." (Court Services Victoria,

2014) 9. Affirmation- a verbal, solemn and formal declaration, which is made in

place of an oath e.g. "I solemnly and sincerely declare and affirm that the evidence I shall give will be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but

the truth." (Court Services Victoria, 2014)
