Aim. This article presents the results obtained in a qualitative research related to classroom practices and perceptions of teachers of English as a foreign language in Spain. The aim of this study is to present examples of good teaching practices, including the types of resources, materials and assessment used in spoken English teaching.  Methods. A qualitative investigation that used ethnographic (non-participant)  observation in primary and secondary English classes was implemented in thirty-two schools. Additionally, twenty semi-structured interviews with primary and secondary teachers were conducted. Results and conclusion. The results show significant differences between both applied methods Non-participant observation indicates that spoken communication in English is not practised sufficiently. However, based on interview results, teachers do apply appropriate language learning strategies that could allow them to successfully teach speaking skills in their students. The results imply that in Spain, there are still many teachers and educational institutions that follow the Grammar Translation Method and other traditional methodologies, which still focus primarily on writing skills. However, several examples of good practices and inspiring methodological and motivational strategies have been found throughout this research, which might be considered as a precedent for those that focus on writing approaches. Cognitive value. This article displays an original research supported by University of Oviedo, through which, the reader can approach to the teaching of spoken English in Spain by means of  some teachers´ perceptions and examples of good practices.

The study is intended to signal changes in the way of communication in a rural family, including the problem of shrinking or even disappearance of traditional oral communication. For centuries, this message has determined the transmission of broadly understood culture, including traditions and customs. At present, the spoken word, one of the typical features of peasant culture, is being forced out of family life for the sake of other forms of communication. The forum for exchanging thoughts, opinions or views has moved from the family table to the Internet, and the activity in conducting conversations is focused primarily on social media or various types of discussion forums.

According to the Bologna Process reforms, the orientation of university teaching and learning towards competence is the key to the ‘future employability’ of graduates. One such skill is rhetorical competence in oral communication, which is crucial to both lifelong learning and to the workplace. The teaching of this key competence would certainly ease the transition between university and working life. However, particularly in German Studies programs at Polish universities, the transmission of rhetorical competence is often of peripheral importance – if it is taught at all. Often, this skillset is simply expected of students, for example when they are required to give an oral presentation. This contribution examines the competence of Polish-speaking students of German as a foreign language in an intercultural learning context. It will focus in particular on the capturing of possibilities for improvement, particularly on the communicative effect on German native speakers of non-native speakers making oral presentations.

Gossip is one of many important ways of communication in today’s world. It is a phenomenon that evolved in the era of oral communication and played a significant role in the process of consolidating the knowledge in community, long before writing was invented. Gossip is a natural and instinctive activity, both in terms of its spreading and listening. The advent of mass media added a new dimension to the phenomenon. Now there is also “institutionalized gossip” which is journalism or, speaking more generally, the activity of media. Gossip is an ambivalent phenomenon. Although it is associated with many negative aspects, it also plays an important social role, promotes the development of interpersonal relationships, development of group identity and norms, it is also an element of informal social control. We need to take care so that it would not go beyond certain norms, however, it should not be simply seen as something malicious.

The voice is an important element of human life. Nowadays, the object of interest is both the material, formal and symbolic layer of voice. The inability to define the concept explicitly and fully and the identification of various voice functions in relation to the subject and Others proves the need for sensitivity to the voice – not only in its more linguistic form during direct communication, but also as the expression or exchange of vocal signals and signs or a significant component of the identity of the communicating entity. The voice conceptualizations cited in the article confirm that the areas of voice research in the individual and social dimension are closely related.

Głos jest istotnym elementem życia człowieka. Współcześnie przedmiot zainteresowania stanowi zarówno materialna, formalna, jak i symboliczna warstwa głosu. Niemożność jednoznacznego i pełnego zdefiniowania pojęcia oraz identyfikacja różnych funkcji głosu w relacji z podmiotem i Innymi dowodzi konieczności uwrażliwienia na głos – nie tylko w jego bardziej ujęzykowionej formie, podczas komunikacji bezpośredniej, ale również jako ekspresji bądź wymiany wokalnych sygnałów i znaków czy istotnej składowej tożsamości komunikującego się podmiotu. Przytoczone w artykule konceptualizacje głosu potwierdzają, że obszary jego badania w wymiarze indywidualnym i społecznym są ze sobą ściśle związane.

In the introcution, the author starts with description of the noble house of the Supreme Court and oral arguments here at the present time. The Court holds oral argument in about 80-90 cases each year and it is the only step in the process visible to the public and opportunity for the Justices to ask questions directly of the attorneys. Also, the argument procedure provides an opportunity for Justices to sense the position held by the other Justices. Before 1849, oral arguments were unrestricted and continued for days an ddrew a large crowd. The core of the article is dedicated to the great rhetors in the 19th century, headed with Daniel Webster, one of the highly regarded courtroom lawyers of the era and the leading constitutional scholar of his generation, with great influence on the legendary Marshall Court. in 1816, Webster passionately argued in favor of his alma mater, Dartmouth College v. Woodward. The NEw Hampshire legislature had passed new laws converting Dartmouth into a state institution. The Supreme Court of the United States ruled in favor of Webster and Dartmouth College. At the turn of the 21st century, we see a revival of rhetorical study, especially in American system of jury trial and procedure, with significant role of lawyers as great orators. The renewed importance of language (linguistic turn) and persuasion in the mediated environment, with the focus on the wide variations of lawyer's rhetoric and its consequences in the 20th century play a significant role in the increasing interest in rhetorics.

V úvodu se autor věnuje popisu monumentální budovy Nejvyššího soudu a problematice ústního jednání před tímto soudem v současnosti. Soud nařizuje ústní jednání v 80-90 případech ročně a jde o jedinou viditelnou možnost procesu pro veřejnost a zároveň příležitost pro soudce klást otázky přímo advokátům. Argumentační procedura zároveň umožňuje soudcům zjišťovat sílu názorů na projednávaný případ, zastávanou ostatními soudci. Před rokem 1849 bylo ústní jednání neomezené; trvalo několik dní a přitahovalo značné zástupy zájemců. Jádro článku je věnováno velkým řečníkům 19. století, vedených Danielem Websterem, jedním z nejvíce oceňovaných advokátů této éry a vůdčím ústavním expertem své generace s velkým vlivem na legendární Marshallův soud. Roku 1816 Webster vášnivě argumentoval na podporu své alma mater, případu Dartmouth College v. Woodward. Legislativa státu New Hampshire přijala zákon, který změnil Dartmouthskou kolej na státní instituci. Nejvyšší soud Spojených států rozhodl ve prospěch Webstera a Dartmouthské koleje. Na přelomu 21. století dochází ke znovuobnovení rétorických studií, zvláště v americkém systému porotního soudnictví a procesu s klíčovou rolí právníků jako velkých řečníků. Důvodem je ve 20. století znovuobjevená důležitost jazyka (obrat k jazyku) a přesvědčování v medializovaném světě, se zaměřením na široké variace právnické rétoriky a její důsledky.
