I write my hand I speak I The difference between written and spoken presentation

Transfer of old texts. . .

I have participated in several reading clubs for a while, all of which are in the form of sharing the books I have read. For the report, this part is not my forte, so it is necessary to prepare a complete oral script first. , At that time I was also writing some or not. It was also a matter of the way to post the written manuscript for sharing. At this time, there was a difficulty. Should I write a lecture or an article?

When looking at other speakers, I always wonder how they prepare the content, because in my own sharing, spoken and written language will be different ways of thinking. Maybe many people can switch naturally, but at least I can't just mention it simply. Click to share the content, if you don't prepare the complete verbatim script, you will always get stuck, but if you really rewrite it into a verbatim script, the arrangement of details will be significantly different, so whether it is speaking or reading, I need to draft separately. , but where is the difference between the spoken and written language , this article will sort out my thoughts.

First of all, if you are very good, you don’t need to prepare for sharing the speech, you can skip this one.

message bandwidth

Do you speed up when you watch youtobe? There are countless content that you can watch in various media. Except for a few content that people want to enjoy, I am used to fast-forwarding and watching most of the programs, and I won’t get used to it later. Just want to slow down.

The reading speed of an article can vary greatly according to personal habits or training. For ordinary people who do not understand speed reading, the speed is about 300~800 words/min. of.

As for the reading and listening speed of the film, I have not found a specific speed, and few people will train it specially. I think the speed that can be improved is limited due to the influence of the speaker's tone of voice. Using the normal speed of speech, the average person speaks about 150~240. Words/min, but there are people who can use 3x or 4x fast to watch youtobe. If the triple speed goes down, the receiving speed will be less than 1000 words/min, which is much slower than the reading speed.

It can be found that the speed of people's information reception actually exceeds the output speed, and there is a gap between the reading speed and the reading speed, but the key that further affects the speed of the two is the way of reading the information.

When using speed reading, an important skill is not to read word by word. The reason why people who are proficient in reading skills can read fast is to skillfully capture keywords, scan the beginning and end of each chapter and paragraph, even if they skip in the middle. Can understand 80%, but listening to sound or video can only be advanced according to the time axis, which is not easy to actively absorb.

dynamic

"Dynamic" is the fundamental difference between the two receiving methods. When arranging content, in the form of static articles, it is relatively unnecessary to control the reader's attention. Although it is necessary to spread the knowledge content, in the dynamic audio and video, it is necessary to control the reader. Attention, I believe this is one of the important skills for lecturers, but even without speaking experience, I can imagine that in school, if the teacher cannot control the progress in the classroom, it is a natural phenomenon for students to be distracted.

For example, it is like listing detailed items, such as: 1. What, 2. Such and such... In a static article, there will be no difference between listing them once and for all, but when listening to the sound, if they do not Note that it is easy to miss one or two items and not hear clearly. This linearly advanced speech format cannot be rewinded. Unless the screen briefing is supplemented, it will be over.

There is such a difference in the arrangement of the content. The oral and verbatim manuscripts need to be more smoothly connected. If the articles are not spoken enough or the logic is unclear, they will become completely read and cannot be conveyed in their own words.

"I write my mouth"

This is a style of writing. It was originally the slogan of the vernacular movement. In short, it means "use my hands to write down what I want to say." This type of writing is smooth and easy to read, but it is not It's easy to write, at least I'm still working on it, I think there are two difficulties.

1 Unnecessary words:

It is true that articles written in this way are easy to read, but there are still two separate forms for oral and written language. This is because written language lacks tone and body language. To restore the feeling of spoken language, many auxiliary words must be added, such as um, ah, oh , , and connecting sentences, but prose is fine, but writing some complex content will be too casual and difficult to make into an essay. For example, explanatory dialogues that often appear in movies can be seen in the script. The content is clear, It's very blunt when you say it, people don't talk like that.

2 Would you like to hear what you are saying:

Another situation is that it is indeed written in the way you speak, but when you come back to Kangkang, are you sure that you are speaking human words?

People are talking all the time, so it is more difficult to doubt whether I can speak or not. I am not good at words, so this sentence may not be effective, but when expressing my own opinions, I want to say a series of complex opinions. While thinking about it, people who can sort out the structure of discourse seriously feel that it is rare.

When we sort out a version of the written draft, it is indeed according to our own way of speaking, perhaps the words are spoken, but the structure of the content may not be clarified by ourselves, because the content has not been fully understood, so on the spot Still stuck when playing.

Epilogue

Earlier, I distinguished the characteristics of spoken and written language, including the form of receiving messages and the structure of arranging messages, to summarize my views.

Spoken language is a way of expressing more emphasis on immediate effect. The reader needs to be synchronized with the content, which makes it necessary to avoid skipping large-span faults in the arrangement of the content. In particular, in-depth knowledge requires gradual progress and the completion of presentation, of course. If you don't plan to prepare, there won't be so many obstacles, and you'll just have to react on the spot.

As for written language, relatively speaking, it can allow less smooth writing, but there are still standards (punctuation, word selection) that need to be met. As a form of presenting opinions, the article can use a lower threshold to quickly spread more layers and depths .
