In a paragraph, explain how two conventions of drama reinforce the effect of the language in a play in developing characters or introducing a theme.

In drama there is a tool called convention that is used to give the play greater meaning. The idea is to use it repeatedly in such a way that the public can recognize it.

Explanation:

 There are several types of conventions that can reinforce the effect of dialogue in a play. The conventions of oral communication are those which allow respect for it and know the space that each individual maintains to participate in an oral communication. While in written language, it describes the use of formal knowledge of written language in order to protect the clarity of the message for readers. This implies:

• Follow the directionality and linearity of writing.

• Use the necessary spelling resources to guarantee the meaning and clarity of the message: capital letters, accents and punctuation marks.

This is of great help for the development of a character, since without these formats the play and the dialogues would be really disorganized and the public would not be able to understand them.
