Description
In this study, we defined the skills for "Japanese public speaking" as necessary communication skills in public situations for non-native speakers of Japanese who engage in professional work in Japan. We then investigated what kind of characteristics and development patterns Japanese business shikiji (ceremonial greeting) speeches have as one genre in Japanese public speaking. After conducting an analysis of the components (moves and steps) in 20 Japanese shikiji speeches given by Japanese native speakers, we found a tendency for limited components such as "opening greeting," "self-introduction," "toast" and "closing announcement" to be developed in the same pattern in the introduction and closing sections. In the main body, after components such as "presenting facts," "reporting" and "presenting the speaker's theory," other components such as "hope," "anticipation" and "aspiration" frequently appeared in a pattern transitioning to the closing section. Also, because the components, "consideration for others" and "reference" were observed throughout their entire speeches, we surmised that speakers tried to create a sense of unity with their audiences by using formulaic expressions including keigo as they recognize the various social standpoints of the audience. By investigating these kinds of genre specific components, formulaic expressions and development patterns, we believe that we can develop more specific teaching methods and materials to enhance Japanese public speaking skills.
