what does “to make a speech” mean?
Question by donne_vedete: what does “to make a speech” mean?
I learned that to make a speech means to give a speech(to speak in public).
Then, does “to make a speech” also convey the meaning of making a draft of a speech?
One more. Do you say “wirte a speech” to mean “make a draft of a speech”?
I’m learning English. This is not in my dictionary.

Making a draft of a speech would be referred to as “writing a speech” or perhaps “planning a speech”.
Of course, looking at the above, I’ve also answered your second question! You can indeed say “to write a speech” which conveys the same meaning.
Hope this helps, keep up with the learning!
