Common questions about /say

›How do I broadcast without the [Name] prefix?

Use /tellraw @a with a text component. It sends exactly what you write, with no prefix and full formatting.

›Can a command block use /say?

Yes, and the prefix shows the command block's name rather than a player's — which is why naming a command block in an anvil before placing it is worth doing.
