Modification
I can remember when I changed the way I spoke plenty of times. Why?? Many people do this for different reasons. Such reasons may be because of a change in scene, meeting new people trying to fit in, a job interview, etc.. The last time I believe I changed or modified the way I spoke was when I was going in for an interveiw for a law firm named Baker & McKenzie. I knew that I shouldn't go into an interveiw speaking slang or acting as comfortable as I would around family and friends. I would be in a more profesional setting therefor, my speech would have to change.I felt I had to change the way I spoke for this interview because if I was the employer looking to hire I would definitly choose the person with the best speech. Speech is part of presentation and the way you present yourselves to others say alot about your charater. You also have to think about the audience in which you will be conversing with. In my situaion it was much more of a profesional setting hinting a main reason of why I modified the way I spoke. In conclusion, I believe everyone in some form or fashion changes the way they speak depending on the situation even though some do it purposely or some by habit.
