A speech is an informative or instructional exercise. It should be relevant and concise so that one's audience remains interested and attentive. An overly long speech may tend to cause the audience to "nod off". A good speech should have a good introduction, an informative body and a conclusion that recapitulates the main thrust of the speech's subject matter. It is in the body of the speech that one will include sub-points. The number of sub-points included is entirely up to the speaker, remembering that a good speech should be relevant, informative and concise. If one includes a question and answer period, some additional points which one may have wanted to include as sub-points may be raised and addressed and hopefully, everyone should leave satisfied and informed.
A concise essay typically has around 3-4 subpoints, each focusing on a specific aspect of the main topic. Keeping the number of subpoints limited helps maintain clarity and prevents the essay from becoming too lengthy or convoluted.
Subpoints in a speaking outline are the supporting details or arguments that further develop and expand upon the main points or ideas. They provide specific examples, evidence, or explanations to reinforce the main points and help the audience better understand the topic being discussed. Subpoints are arranged hierarchically under main points and are used to structure and organize the presentation or speech effectively.
