Language expert evaluated Nausėda’s report: Leopold the cat died

“The president begins the message with a clear message of cohesion, but immediately kills him by confronting a patient society and bad government. Each congregation implements from its steeple and from its steeple chose to resist. It is no accident at the beginning of the speech. Therefore, I believe that harmony is just a comfortable garment. The president does the same to accuse others of “deepening the division and deepening the dispute”, – N. Bliūdžiūtė evaluated G. Nausėda’s report.

He stated that the messages found no specificity in the annual report.

The words are there, the messages are not. As specificity. The family, the welfare state, social justice – the terms are the same, they are, but what exactly is essential to do or what is the clear position of the president. He praises “self-government”, but does not dare to say which ones specifically (which municipalities led during the pandemic, why not mention them?). “Let’s not miss the opportunity to confirm this agreement with real work” – talks about strengthening self-government, but does not specify what it means? “It is the duty of politicians to change this,” he said of the exclusion. But who is “THIS” and “how”? asked N. Bliūdžiūtė.

He said there was also “cheap populism” in the annual report.

There is also cheap populism: criticism of closing the younger generation for the first time. Maybe I’m wrong, but where have you been before, if you really thought about it at the time? ”Wrote a language expert.

The communication and public speaking expert assured that priorities should be different depending on their place in the speech.

“The judiciary has as much space as the problems of people with disabilities. What is your priority? We distinguish priorities by specificity, clarity and focus. If we dedicate the same amount of time, it is not a priority,” he commented on the annual report .

N. Bliūdžiūtė praised the specific proposals of G. Nausėda.

“But there are places where the president is specific: p. Eg, out of respect for the electorate, it offers specific things (referendums, election of mayors, youth in the Seimas), precisely names another problem: the division into “progressives” and “villagers.” But his position in the Association is still understood only by lawyers, ”said N. Bliūdžiūtė.

She wrote, there are no particularly new proposals in her foreign policy.

“In foreign policy, there are no new proposals, this is already part of the democracies. However, the president’s vocabulary” meeting “,” coordination “does not show activity in the field, which is currently fighting with the Government. By the way They didn’t say anything about this moment ”, the expert was surprised.

N. Bliūdžiūtė stated that the genre of the annual reports is very thankless, so you have to say everything in them.

“But there really is nothing to prevent the classical language structure of ‘include-name-problem-suggest solution’ from focusing more on the ‘part of the solutions’ than just the problems and their pictorial labeling,” he said.

Expert in communication and public speaking, “WOW. The World of Words founder wrote that something very clear at the beginning of the speech would save the situation, simply to name what will be discussed, what are today’s priorities.

N. Bliūdžiūtė praised the use of visual language aids.

“But the language of the report itself is really beautiful: lots of visual linguistic aids that help to understand the text and the idea. The quality text is a great advantage for those who wrote it. But a leader must also be seen in the speech with a clear vision. You won’t write it down, “he said.

“You can sit down,” began the SE President. Probably accidentally. Plus, I’ll finish, ”said the communication and public speaking expert,“ WOW. world of words ”founder N. Bliūdžiūtė.
