• • Elaboration experimenting with different registers, vocal and stylistic effects in creating specific emphases in different types of spoken and written texts, such as speeches, songs, letters to the editor
• • Elaboration knowing when to pause and what tone to use for required effects such as emphasis or persuasion
• • Elaboration identifying and applying features such as repetition, pauses, interruptions and contractions, inverted syntax, such as ben de isterim gelmeyi and the use of non-verbal language and vocal effects
• • Elaboration using challenging word combinations in spoken Turkish tongue twisters, for example, Kartal kalkar dal sarkar, dal sarkar kartal kalkar.
