...day to day is that we have “ Freedom Of Speech “ . The freedom of speech or freedom of expression is one of the basic constitutional rights guaranteed to Americans in the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights. The Founding Fathers believed that a free society must allow its citizens to freely express themselves without government interference. Yes of course everyone has the right to freedom of speech but it doesn't give you the right to (falsely say) “He has a gun “in a huge crowd of people. That is, for example, my right to life cannot overrule your right to life. Our rights to life conflict. If I am a witness to a crime which you are accused, I may not exercise my right of free speech to go in front of a judge and jurors and discuss what happened. Your right to an impartial trial by your peers conflicts with my right to free speech. I’m sure you can think of many more cases. But the general thing is that when rights are used by one person who necessarily conflict with rights use by another, then there is some boundary line that needs to be drawn. Courts generally draw lines when it isn’t plain to common sense, and over time, their decisions have the weight of law. The most complicated such cases end up in front of the Supreme Court. Time, place and manner restrictions. Only in a few situations are rights things that have to be exercised always and everywhere to have meaning, such as your right to life. Your right to free speech, to assemble (protest and march) and petition...

The combination these elements determined with success or failure of a speech. 2. What role does the delivery method (e.g. online, video conferencing, face-to-face, conference room) play in constructing a presentation?

During this time, things were different and moved in a direction that was not appropriate. In the late 1800s, the American setting was not favorable for all men because it was a time of slavery.

...SUMMARY: Distinguish between articulatory, acoustic, and auditory phonetics. Phonetics is the study of speech sound and consists of articulatory phonetics, auditory phonetics, and acoustic phonetics. Phonetics actually provides a language for people to discuss speech sound. Every language has a vocabulary. Articulatory phonetics is the production of speech sound. Auditory phonetics is the perception of speech sound. Acoustic phonetics deals with the physical properties of the speech signal. All three are different, but play an important role in speech. “Phonetics is a branch of linguistics that studies the material aspects of speech sound” (Phonetics 7).[1] The material aspects of sounds are made of physical production, transportation and comprehension of the sound. Another aspect of sound has to do with the function of sound in a language. The American English language does not transcribe all sounds in a one-to-one basis. “There are many instances, though, when we need an internationally comprehensible code for the detailed transcription of sounds, such as in linguistic research, as well as in foreign language teaching” (Phonetics 7).[2] The International Phonetic Association has created a special alphabet for this need. There are three different physical aspects of sound. These can be described as the “articulatory aspect of the speaker, the acoustic aspect of the channel, and the auditory aspect of the hearer” (Phonetics 7).[3] “Articulatory phonetics researches...

...Interpretation of law changings frequently, and how it is interpreted can determine ones willingness to enter legal action. According to The Legal Environment of Business and Online Commerce, “To bring a lawsuit, a plaintiff must have standing to sue. This means the plaintiff must have some stake in the outcome of the lawsuit (pg 25)”. This means someone must be tied in to the case where the outcome could directly affect him or her. If the standard to sue were to be abolished, it would allow a person(s) to sue anyone, ie. A person or a company, without having any real legal reason, and are most likely just trying to sue for finical gain. Laws are in place to protect people and property. Sometimes when abolished, more harm than good can be done. REFRENCES Cheeseman, Henry R..

...impairment. Hearing disorders can result from hereditary or genetic issues, developmental abnormalities, medical conditions such as infections, or other environmental or traumatic factors. While hearing loss typically will not cause a mental developmental problem, other areas such as speech and language, social development and educational achievement are affected by the condition. All of these areas rely heavily on a person's ability to communicate with others. Auditory impairments not only delay an individual's communication skills, but also decreases the amount of effective communication possible with other people. Speech Disorders * Speech disorders are a common physiological barrier to communication. This includes different types of disorders such as stuttering, apraxia and dysarthria. Stuttering hinders the fluency of communication with prolonged speech sounds and repetitions of parts of words or entire words. Apraxia of speech is a condition which occurs due to damage to the speaking part of the brain. This condition results in a person losing the ability to form syllables and words with sounds. The severity of the condition depends on the severity of the brain damage. Another motor speech disorder is dysarthria, a condition in which the muscles of the face, mouth and respiratory system are weak and not able to work at full capacity. This condition...

...People are born with an innate need to communicate. Everyday people communicate through the manner of language acknowledged as speech. Subsequently, they were born to practice communicating verbally through imitation and listening. Speech starts to become automatic and people put sounds and syllables together fluently and are able to understand other people with little or no conscious thought. Sometimes people struggle with language and they feel isolated because they are surrounded by people who use language as a second nature. Individuals can struggle with speech because they have congenital birth defects, physical, psychological, brain, vocal tract damage, or they have problems learning the phonological system. Because of this people have...
