Similarities between Hitler's speech and Churchill's speech.

One of the similarities that can be seen in both the speeches is the use of language. Both the speeches uses the pronoun I and We, to persuade their listeners. The use of " I " shows the authority that the speaker is trying to possess in order to deal with the people of his country. The use of " we" in the speech also shows the unity that both the speakers are trying to create with the people of the nation and to fight for their rights.
       Besides that, the speech acts used by both the speakers also influenced the people to hear their speeches. For example, the voice projection of the speakers was loud and could be heard clearly. They had confidence in themselves when they were saying their speeches. Their persuasion technique was good. Hitler and Churchill tried to show their people that they tried to make peace with their enemies, but the enemies refused them.  Another thing is that both the speakers condemn their opponents but they do it in a manipulative way.

  1. Narin, both are similar in some ways. I think it is good to know that we can read people's mind by analyzing their presentation and language. We should behave after this.huhu
