When should I pause during the speech?

In a speech, there can't and can't be no pause. The pause in a speech, whether logical or emotional, actually refers to the speaker's deliberate silence between words, sentences or paragraphs for a certain period of time by feeling.

When to pause, please pay attention to the following points:

Punctuation: It is impossible and unnecessary for the speaker to say punctuation directly in the text, but the audience can hear it with their ears. This is that function of pause in speech.

2. When adjusting the breath. As a means of regulating breath, it not only gives the speaker a chance to breathe, but also gives the audience the possibility of aftertaste.

3. When you want to produce a static field effect.

4. Excessive influence. In the transformation of different semantics and paragraphs, it is not an interlanguage, but an appropriate pause. Because this pause will give the audience a psychological hint and naturally produce a transitional effect.

5. Emphasize the role. In order to attract the audience's attention and deepen the audience's impression, speakers often need to emphasize it. Pause can play an important role.

6. Humorous effect. Deliberately stopping where it should not be, or deliberately stopping continuously, will often produce unexpected humorous effects. Proper use of this method can make the speech more interesting. Novices should use it with caution.

Mark Twain is a famous novelist and an outstanding speaker. He once said: "Proper pause often produces extraordinary effects, which language itself cannot achieve."

I hope these can help you.
