    Competency

    MELC: Recognize positive and negative messages conveyed in a text.

    Objectives

    After the end of the lessons, the learners are expected to be able to:
    1. Discern the positive and negative message conveyed in the text,
    2. Construct sentences applying tone words indicating positive and negative messages,
    and;
    3. Create a poster slogan about certain topic using tone words

    Key Information
    POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE MESSAGES
    Positive messages include messages where the audience is expected to react in a neutral to positive
    manner. Positive messages tend to consist of routine or good news. These messages might be items
    such as congratulations, confirmations, directions, simple credit requests, or credit approvals.

    Negative messages include things such as: refusals, rejects, recalls, announcements of policies that will
    not benefit the audience, requests the audience will see as insulting or intrusive, negative
    performance appraisals, disciplinary notices, and apologies.

    Writers use tone words to establish a message. These are words that make the author’s opinion on the
    subject matter known. They make the tone either positive or negative.

    Gender-Neutral language – words that are not gender specific and refer to people in general with no
    reference to men and women.

    Example: policeman/policewoman – police officer


    chairman – chairperson
    spokesman – spokesperson
    landlord – land owner
    mankind – humankind

    Euphemism – replacing a word or phrase with another in order to make sentences sound less offensive.

    Example: died – pass away cemetery - boneyard


    garbage man – sanitation engineer prison – correctional facility
    old people – senior citizen bossy - outspoken
