Simpson Case when referring to the Ray Rice Controversy and used sources to backup their points about what they were saying about the Ray Rice for example: videos, quotes and pictures. The telegraph and the sun both use other players cases to refer to Ray Rice’s own case. They used the 49ers fulllback Bruce Miller or the Lions offensive linemen Rodney Austin. The guardian used different sources to the telegraph and the guardian use different sources. the telegraph and guardian used the same videos but they both used different pictures they used one of him with his wife and one of him when he was still playing for baltimore.

Text and Speech Essay

The relationship between spoken language and texting can be shown by the way people speak, the way they try to use certain words or adapt them to the type of people we talk to, whether it’s formal or informal.

Homophones can be used in text as a way of keeping messages short and quick. Some can see a certain laziness in homophones (using Y instead of why.) that people have when texting one another, but if the other person can understand it they may see it as a more efficient  way to communicate by text than a laziness, You wouldn’t be able to use homophones in speech for the main reason that they sound the same in speech. Homophones like  carrot or carat, you wouldn’t know unless someone says “a carat of gold” or “this carrot tastes nice”.

Abbreviations can be used a lot in both speech and text, Instead of my team mates saying “Quarterback” we say “QB” we do this when we text each other play, we also use it in game situations if there isn’t enough time or we need to move quickly, so we use the abbreviation to the replace typing the full word, or even something as common in text as the abbreviation “LOL”.

This can be used in both text and speech, but the meanings can be different. In speech it can be used in a sarcastic way to say a joke isn’t funny, if no one laughs at a joke and someone says ”LOL” it isn’t funny, But in text if someone finds it funny something funny they will say “LOL” this is just one example of the relationship speech and text have influenced one another and how text has influenced speech with the abbreviations ”LOL”  and  ”QB” both started in text from and are now used in speech.

Gestures are commonly used in speech, people use gestures to convey their emotions or points while they are speaking  to someone, in an argument people may move the hands around vigorously. If someone is happy or wants to show if there excited they may hi-five someone, this brings me onto emoticons. Emoticons can be used the same exact way, but also with emotions. So if someone is feeling angry, upset, happy, excited whatever they can just use one of these☺.

Para-linguistic links on further to Gestures and Emoticons, as it can be used in both text and speech, but can be hard to convey in text. Para-linguistic ,in speech, is talking and using extra things along aside it (expressions and expressions.) For example, winking after saying “He definitely doesn’t have a detention.” to one of your friends. Over the years, text has tried so hard to become as close to speech as possible. Text has accomplished this by using Emojis in the place of the gestures. By the using emoticons, it brings text as close as possible when it comes to the use of para-linguistics used in both showing the relationship they share with one another and how effieciently it is used in text and spoken language.

Colloquialism is using a word or phrase and any other type of informal language, which come up in both language and text. It doesn’t always have to be used in slang it can be as simple as saying “goin’ ” instead of “going”. But, because slang is normally the most
