2. The speaker: the relation between a message and the speaker is `expressive'.
3. The addressee: the relation between a message and the addressee is `conative'.
4. The contact (channel): the relation between a message and the channel is `phatic'.
5. The code: the relation between a message and a code in which messages are formulated is `metalingual'.
6. The message: the relation between a message and itself is `poetic'.
