speech codes theory  

Definición

  • Speech codes theory (SCT) expands on the ethnography of speaking (EOC) proposed by Dell Hymes by offering a communication-based analytic framework from which to understand cultural communication. Building on the idea that culture and communication are inextricably linked, SCT is designed to describe, explain, and predict cultural communication within the context of speech communities—that is, the theory is concerned with understanding how, in particular societies, community members perform, value, and evaluate their own and others' communication in their everyday lives.
