Informational (formal) style
is characterized by the predominant use of intellectual 
intonation patterns. It occurs in formal discourse where the task set by the sender of the 
message is to communicate information without giving it any emotional or volitional 
evaluation. This intonational style is used, for instance, by radio and television announcers 
when reading weather forecasts, news, etc. or in various official situations. It is considered 
to be stylistically neutral.

In 
scientific (academic) style
intellectual and volitional (or desiderative) intonation 
patterns are concurrently employed. The speaker’s purpose here is not only to prove a 
hypothesis, to create new concepts, to disclose relations between different phenomena, 
etc., but also to direct the listener’s attention to the message carried in the semantic 
component. Although this style tends to be objective and precise, it is not entirely 
unemotional and devoid of any individuality. Scientific intonational style is frequently 
used, for example, by university lecturers, schoolteachers, or by scientists in formal and 
informal discussions. 
In 
declamatory style
the emotional role of intonation increases; thereby intonation 
patterns used for intellectual, volitional and emotional purposes have an equal share. The 
speaker’s aim is to appeal simultaneously to the mind, will and feelings of the listener by 
image-bearing devices. Declamatory style is generally acquired by special training and it 
is used, for instance, in stage speech, classroom recitation, verse-speaking or in reading 
aloud fiction. 
 
Publicistic style
is characterized by the predominance of volitional (or desiderative) 
intonation patterns against the background of intellectual and emotional ones. The general 
aim of this intonational style is to exert influence on the listener, to convince him that the 
speaker’s interpretation is the only correct one and to cause him to accept the point of view 
expressed in the speech. The task is accomplished not merely through logical 
argumentation but through persuasion and emotional appeal. For this reason publicistic 
style has features in common with scientific style, on the one hand, and declamatory style, 
on the other hand. As distinct from the latter its persuasive and emotional appeal is 
achieved not by the use of imagery but in a more direct manner. Publicistic style is 
resorted to by political speech-makers, radio and television commentators, participants at 
press conferences and interviews and counsel and judges in courts of law.
