Abstract
In the light of different relations and performances of the speaker and the hearer in the course of uttering, this article divides the use of oral Chinese into two main parts: “One-way Expression” and “Two-way Communication”. The article lists eight main forms of oral Chinese such as reading aloud (including declaiming), speaking in public (including lecturing), conversing (including chatting), debating (including negotiating), and provides a brief explanation of their Characteristics, requirements and taboos.
