Explanation

The rhetorical structures in communication here are clusters, form, genre and narrative.

Clusters group recurring symbols and terms that reveal a speaker's underlying worldview.

Form is the shaping arrangement that gives a message its structured pattern.

Genre is the recognised type or category into which a communicative work falls.

Narrative is the story structure through which experience is organised and told.

Paralanguage concerns vocal features such as tone and pace, a delivery element rather than a rhetorical structure.
