Mode
of address can be defined as the ways
in which the relations between addresser and addressee are constructed in a
text.
It
is how the text speaks to its audience for example how direct or indirect.
A newscaster
speaks directly to the camera and therefore it is directly to the audience. Soaps
speaks indirectly because we are watching people talking and acting with one
another.
There
are different types of modes. There is ‘1st person’ which is used
when writing in a diary because you're talking about yourself as in ‘I and Me.
Also There is ‘3rd person’ that is used as a narrative.
