  Enunciation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Enunciation is the act of speaking clearly and concisely.
The opposite of enunciation is mumbling or slurring.
Enunciation coupled with slow speech is often used as an insult.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 97.6.4   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The "uttered enunciation" is "the linguistic record of the communication (or referential) situation as it is expressed in the utterance." The actors (or 'actants') in the actual communication situation are categorized as enunciator and enunciatee, whereas the actants at the level of the uttered enunciation are called the narrator and narratee.
Enunciation, for example, is a crucial concept throughout the book and yet is only formally defined in one line: "the process whereby all forms of discourse are produced" (4).
Chapter Four is one of the most successful chapters in the book because it applies the enunciative approach very effectively to the problem of the tragic mask and the ways in which it mediates between the identity of the fictional character and that of the actor behind the mask.

 Initial guides and thresholds of the visual game
This text analyses the meaning of visual enunciates in regard to the relationship established between them and their users and, consequently, visual proposals are evaluated as acts in a game of language which, besides giving possibilities for consensual understanding of their use, also allows the generation and the comprehension of unpublished facts.
That is to say, visual enunciations with conventional and formal structure, such as a system of traffic signals, in which the informative validity and efficiency come from the fact of being impermeable to the context in which it is carried out, thus inhibiting any kind of interpretation by the user.
This symetry in conceptual relations explains that an audio-visual enunciation is not a simple experience of a fragment of reality but rather that from this "experience" we adopt the attitude of "play" which the author adopted when he produced the audio-visual enunciation and we try to understand the content of the symbolic enunciation.

 PROBLEMS CONCERNING VERBAL ENUNCIATION IN GRAMMAR SCHOOL TEXTBOOKS IN MEXICO
The inherent purpose of this theory is to understand students’ difficulties when solving verbal enunciation problems and to understand as much as possible their reasoning in solving them.
As a result of this advance we may conclude that, from a theoretical perspective, the presentation of verbal enunciation problems in textbooks has not been taken care of, and this happens in the first place because their occurrence is not frequent; most problems are found in fourth grade and the number decreases from there on.
What we have observed in the verbal enunciation problems we analyzed is the growing complexity of the quantities dealt with and the contexts in which they appear.

 Establishing the Ethical Sense
Christ's enunciation in Matthew 5:27-28 starts from the commandment: "Do not commit adultery", in order to show how it must be understood and put into practice, so that the justice that God-Yahweh wished as legislator may abound in it.
If we admitted this semantic reading of Christ's enunciation (Mt 5:27-28), it would be necessary to reflect deeply on the ethical consequences that would be derived from it, that is, on the conclusions about the ethical regularity of the behavior.
Going on to the second part of Christ's enunciation (that is, the one in which the new ethos begins to take shape), it would be necessary to understand the expression, "Everyone who looks at a woman lustfully," in exclusive reference to persons according to their civil status.

 Negation and its Reliabilities
The enunciating instance, the "subject of enunciation", was not to be identified with the "subject of the enunciated", the subject that figured within the content of the utterance.
The modesty of the enunciated is not so modest on the level of enunciation; and it is presumptuous, because the position of enunciation to which the enunciated alludes is imaginary.
In the case of the conscious use of negation the situation is totally different: The subject enunciates a content which is unpleasant for him/ her, often under the form of a self-accusation (for example "I am a Replicant").

 [EMLS 6.1 (May, 2000]: 3.1-22 Leading the Gaze: From Showing to Telling in Kenneth Branagh's Henry V and Hamlet
Given its verbal nature, theatrical enunciation is generally considered to be more able to 'tell,' whereas screen enunciation is usually thought to be more able to 'show' through the semiotic diversity of images and sounds it can convey.
The cuts from one shot to another, as well as the camera moves within the shots, are, as far as possible, justified by the logic of the story, by the characters' gazes, gestures or moves.
The long, obvious circular movements start by pointing out their own enunciation, attracting the spectators' eye on their very trajectory, but they always end up dissolving into the diegesis by bringing in the field such character or such action useful to the story.

In the formation of the consonants the breath passage is obstructed or closed by lips, tongue, or some other organ of speech.

 CongressCATH 2003: Repeat Performance: Enunciation and Event   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
This paper explores the relation of musical objects to enunciative contexts, and does so with reference to a single work by conceptual artist Pierre Bismuth, namely his 'Blue Monk in Progress' (1995).
Using Foucault's notions of enunciation and discursive formations and a Deleuzian notion of the event, this paper unfolds the imbricated enunciative contexts in 'Blue Monk'.
Their effect is to suggest a spectral event, which is continually displaced by discursive objects throughout a series of contexts, and thinkable as traversing them but appearing in none of them.

 Reading Problem Defined
Unless a skilled reader intends to read in a formal or exaggerated manner for effect she will enunciate text exactly like she would spontaneously speak the same text.
Careful or exaggerated enunciation (in comparison to the reader's natural speech) during oral reading is a behavioral manifestation of a reading problem.
It may be evidenced if the reader's brain is not primarily focused on gleaning meaning from the text, is not integrating an appropriate mix of information from the reader's knowledge of vocabulary, phonics and cadence, or some combination of the above.

And, whether because of viewer complaints or the creators just realized it themselves, they finally had the two stars put extra emphasis on that line: "Gee, our old LaSalle ran great." (That was one of the problems: By 1971, younger viewers had never heard of a car called the LaSalle, which ended production in 1940.)
So, the lyrics were never changed, merely enunciated better.
Of course, real trivia buffs will remember that an extended version of the song was released in 1971 and climbed all the way to No. 43 on the Billboard charts.
