what are two techniques for ensuring language is appropriate to an audience that is not very familiar with the subject of your speech?
□ use words that are intended to evoke a strong emotional response.
□ use plain language.
□ use words that sound natural coming from you.
□ avoid profanity and off-color remarks.

Explanation:

• Evoking strong emotional language does not aid understanding for an unfamiliar audience; it may distract or confuse.
• Plain language simplifies complex terms, making the subject accessible to those new to it.
• Using natural-sounding language helps maintain clarity and relatability, ensuring the audience follows the speech without unnecessary jargon.
• Avoiding profanity is a general courtesy, not a technique tailored to making subject-specific language accessible to an unfamiliar audience.

Answer:

B. Use plain language.
C. Use words that sound natural coming from you.
