What is meant by Communication and what are the means of communication?
Answers
Answer:
Communication is simply the act of transferring information from one place, person or group to another.
Every communication involves (at least) one sender, a message and a recipient. This may sound simple, but communication is actually a very complex subject.
The transmission of the message from sender to recipient can be affected by a huge range of things. These include our emotions, the cultural situation, the medium used to communicate, and even our location. The complexity is why good communication skills are considered so desirable by employers around the world: accurate, effective and unambiguous communication is actually extremely hard.
Answer:
Communication can be categorized into three basic types:
(1) verbal communication, in which you listen to a person to understand their meaning;
(2) written communication, in which you read their meaning; and
(3) nonverbal communication, in which you observe a person and infer meaning.
Each has its own advantages, disadvantages, and even pitfalls.
