Communication

Communication is the process of exchanging information, ideas, thoughts, or feelings between individuals or groups through verbal, non-verbal, written, or visual means. It encompasses various forms, including speaking, listening, reading, writing, gestures, and facial expressions. The effectiveness of communication relies on both the sender’s ability to convey a message clearly and the receiver’s ability to interpret it accurately. Communication plays a crucial role in human interaction, facilitating understanding, collaboration, and relationship-building. It can occur in various contexts, such as interpersonal, group, organizational, and mass communication, each with its own dynamics and nuances. The study of communication examines how messages are created, transmitted, and received, and it explores the influence of cultural, social, and contextual factors on the communication process.
