Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A planned pause in a speech can be a nonverbal transition because it helps the speaker to transition between different parts of the speech or to emphasize a specific point. Pausing can also help to build anticipation and interest in the audience, making them more engaged with the speech. While a pause may also serve other purposes such as emphasizing a point, it is not typically used as a filler or a summary, and is not directly related to an internal preview.
