A manuscript speech is when a speaker writes out their entire speech and reads directly from the prepared text at a podium for the audience. It involves reading a pre-written speech word-for-word. Manuscript speeches are often used for official meetings, conferences, and commencement exercises where precision is important or complex information needs to be conveyed concisely. While it ensures accuracy, a manuscript speech runs the risk of becoming boring if not delivered engagingly.
