TYPES OF COMMUNICATION

 

 

Communicating is considered vital to trying to find the best communication medium is a must to keep in touch.  Some of the usual and normal means of communication are mentioned below.

 

 

 

 

 

There are many types of communication:

 

Verbal communication.

This is the most common of the many types of communication that we all have been using for so long. Verbal means you talk to each other. Uttering words and phrases and sentences is considered a verbal communication.

 

 

 

 

Non-verbal communication.

Non speaking, no words uttered, no noise type of communication; this is how a non-verbal communication is defined. This is normally used when one is not capable to speak.

 

Visual communication.

From the term itself, it is those types of communication that is relayed to you visually. You use your visuals to communicate with the map or the visual ad that you see to let you know where you should go. It communicates with you as you look at it and tells you what to do and where to go.

 

 

 

 

Written communication.

Writing is also another of the types of communication. If you do not have the ability to speak and communicate by the use of your mouth and tongue, the paper and the pen will help you. You can write anything that you want to say. It will help you tell others of what is in your thoughts and let them understand by reading your writings 
 
 
 

Speech circuit

To carry the speech circuit needs a speaker or listener or sender and receiver use the same code.

Context. It is the frame of reference with respect to which the signs acquire a particular meaning. The set of signs and samples used in text to distinguish some other meanings.

Speaker and listener. They are the people who set the oral communication.

Message and code. The first relates to what is said and the second is the language used. The speaker emits an encoded message decodes the listener (it is) and responds with another coded message is related to that was sent. When the speaker becomes listener and the listener in speaker, and alternate functions is performed speech circuit.

To establish a dialogue requires, among other things, speak the same language, and so the caller can understand the messages that are sent and the sender (the speaker) understands what you want to participate. In this sense, language is the code that is the most frequent form of communication. Therefore, a condition so that it can establish a dialogue speech loop listener and speaker is that using the same code.

When not handled the same code is very difficult to establish communication, whether present or not other elements involved in the speech circuit.

Differences Between American and British English

While there are certainly many more varieties of English, American English and British English are the two varieties most used in the world

The three major differences between American and British English are:

Pronunciation - differences in both vowel and consonants, as well as stress and intonation

Vocabulary - differences in nouns and verbs, especially phrasal verb usage

Spelling - differences are generally found in certain prefix and suffix forms

Use of the Present Perfect

In British English the present perfect is used to express an action that has occurred in the recent past that has an effect on the present moment.

For example:

I've lost my key. Can you help me look for it?
 

In American English the following is also posible:

  I lost my key. Can you help me look for it?

In British English the above would be considered incorrect. However, both forms are generally accepted in standard American English. Other differences involving the use of the present perfect in British English and simple past in American English include already, just and yet.

British English:
I've just had lunch
I've already seen that film
Have you finished your homework yet?
American English:

I just had lunch OR I've just had lunch
I've already seen that film OR I already saw that film.
Have your finished your homework yet? OR Did you finish your homework yet?

How do animals communicate?

Animals might not be able to speak or master advanced language techniques, but they certainly have other ways of communicating. Whale song, wolf howls, frog croaks, bird chips -- even the waggle dance of the honeybee or the vigorous waving of a dog's tail -- are among the panoply of ways animals transmit information to each other and to other denizens of the animal kingdom.

Communication between species can play important roles as well. One study suggested that the reason Madagascan spiny-tailed iguanas have well-developed ears -- despite the fact that they don't communicate vocally -- is so they can hear the warning calls of the Madagascan paradise flycatcher. The two species have nothing in common except for the fact that they share a general habitat and raptors like to snack on them. So when an iguana hears a bird raise the alarm among other birds, it likely knows to be on alert for incoming predators, too.

What is the difference between language and communication???

IT´S VERY SIMPLE

Communication is the process of sharing information between two or more persons.

 

This can be verbally, through gestures or even body language.

Communication has three purposes: request, reject, or comment and is used to gather thoughts, express thoughts, receive and understand information.

Language, according is a socially shared code that uses a conventional system of arbitrary symbols to represent ideas about the world that are meaningful to those who know the same code.

 

 

Who speaks more? Men or women?

Do you know the answer?

New research is about to blow up stereotypes of the strong, silent man and the overly chatty woman who nags him.

According to a study released today, men talk just as much as women — on average 16,000 words in a day.

 

Using digital voice recorders over an eight-year period, researchers at the University of Arizona studied how many words hundreds of American and Mexican college students spoke over several days. The students carried the voice-activated recorders for almost all of their waking hours, on average about 17 hours a day.

 

The study found that women spoke 16,215 words a day, while men spoke 15,669. Although women speak slightly more words than men, statistically, the difference is insignificant, according to Matthias R. Mehl, a psychology professor at the University of Arizona and the study's lead author.

 

word HELLO

Did you know that?

The word hello has been credited to Thomas Edison, specifically as a way to greet someone when answering the telephone; according to one source, he expressed his surprise with a misheard Hullo. Alexander Graham Bell initially used Ahoy-hoy (as used on ships) as a telephone greeting.
