In Chapter $18,$ you learned that the most common speech is the special occasion speech. The text states, $$Special occasions are the punctuation marks of day$-$to$-$day life, the high points that stand out above ordinary routine.$$ In other words, we witness special occasions almost every day. From speeches given at a wedding reception to speeches given during a funeral, everyday life requires that we mark occasions. This means that at some point during your life, you may have to give a few remarks at a special event.

You learned that special occasion speeches fall into four $(4)$ different categories: speeches of introduction, speeches of presentation, speeches of acceptance, and commemorative speeches.
