Abstract: Speakers who can effectively communicate, persuade, and motivate others are in high demand in society, and public speeches prove this. Their effectiveness is greatly influenced by the pragmatics of public speeches, which is the study of how context affects language interpretation. In order to demonstrate how these components support effective communication, this article examines the crucial pragmatic aspects of public speeches across a range of social strata.
