Here's a breakdown:
* Intentions: What is the speaker trying to achieve? Are they trying to persuade, inform, entertain, or something else? What is their purpose in speaking?
* Emotions: How does the speaker feel about the topic? Are they passionate, angry, sad, or neutral? What clues in their speech reveal their emotions (e.g., tone of voice, word choice, body language)?
* Context: What is the situation in which the speech is being given? Who is the speaker addressing? What is the surrounding environment? Understanding the context can help you interpret the meaning of the speech more accurately.
In addition to these, you can also make inferences about:
* The speaker's background and knowledge: What do they know about the topic? What are their experiences?
* The speaker's relationship with the audience: Are they close to the audience? Do they respect the audience?
* The speaker's credibility: Is the speaker trustworthy? Do they have any biases?
Making inferences allows you to go beyond the literal meaning of the words and understand the deeper message and meaning of the speech.
