Communication is one of the most important skills a person can develop. While simple, it is a key element of what makes us human. The ability to talk with another person allows us to create relationships that would never be possible if we could not communicate with one another. Interacting with each other is often the quickest way to understand someone else regardless of who they are. Although, when we communicate with others we use more than just our voices. A number of other senses are vital to the way we connect with others. The most important of these, in my opinion, would be sight, touch, and sound. However, if one or more of these senses were missing from the equation, would it be inevitable for a friendship to fail? I began a …show more content…
While I couldn’t see her or anyone else in the call, I felt a connection to them, and especially to her just based on how well we got along from the beginning. Group calls were replaced by private calls soon after I met her. Belle and I would spend nearly every day until 5 A.M. talking together over Skype or text and playing video games together. Neither of us knew what the other looked like and we had never met face to face, but that did not matter to either of us. We spent a few months just as friends like this, but it was obvious to both of us that we had feels for each other. During the month of August, it was finally time to become more than friends. I asked her, and we decided to begin dating on August 18th, 2016. From there we continued to call every day until September, which was the most life changing part of this whole experience for me. My family was planning to go on vacation to Florida in September, and little did they know, Belle lived in southern Florida. Belle and I went back and forth trying to find a way that we could meet each other as soon as I told her about the trip. Afraid of how my parents would respond to both me wanting to visit a stranger and me having a girlfriend, I hid our plans for as long as I could. Eventually, I knew that I would have to tell someone, and so I went to my mom to ask permission to meet with Belle and her dad. I showed her a map to the park we wanted to go to, which was a large open public place with many people
I started to ask more open-ended questions about her family and the day she was having. She told me about herself as long as I asked but kept it at that.

Giving and getting feedback can be both positive and negative in which both ways can be difficult to hear. It can even be difficult to understand depending on how the feedback is being given and received. Either way giving and getting feedback can be discovered in many aspects of our daily lives and mastering this element of communication allows us to become more meaningful communicators. Through my research for this paper, I have been able to examine many variable environments in which giving and getting feedback can be found.
Human communication can be described with five different key arguments which can be in relation to this statement: “Human thought is not neutral, but everything we think and communicate is constructed from a particular point of view, whether we realize it or not.”(Steinberg and Angelopulo, 2007). These five key arguments each have their own influences on how humans communicate with each other in different ways.

Communication is a tool used by service users and care workers in work environment to gain an understanding of the care either to be received or be provided.

For Postman, the human modes of communication play an important role in terms of shaping discourse. If one can understand the role that methods of communication play in shaping culture and discourse, one can better understand how communication impacts the development and subsequent spread of culture and knowledge. Therefore, constructing an understanding of human epistemology requires an analysis of the prevalent mediums of communication within society.
Suppose you were sent to give a talk to a crowd composed of pupils of an elementary school and university students. Or, as a communicator, how will you conduct, an awareness campaign in a marketplace? How will you negotiate for funding as an entrepreneur? How do you ensure the objective is attained? No doubt the linguistic context can be adjusted. However, will this guarantee effective communication? No! Remember communication is a dynamic activity that involves understanding and sharing meaning (McLean, 2010). Meaning depending on the circumstance the content can be tailor given the context. Communicating in context can take the form of intrapersonal, interpersonal, group, public, or mass communication. We shall proceed by looking at them starting with intrapersonal communication.
Organisational communication can b describe as sending and receiving of messages among interrelated individuals within a particular environment or setting to achieve individual and common goals. Lets discuss the following perspectives.
Language is a powerful tool that is integral in human communication. The human brain is hard-wired to be adept at understanding social cues and situations that change the way we choose to communicate. These internal and external factors play into one another and ultimately determine how we choose to correspond with others to achieve our ultimate goal— relaying a message. Although in many cases it is frowned upon to rely on slang to convey ideas, in some situations, slang can be a reliable resource. By using his or her discretion and analyzing the situation, the speaker must determine whether or not this dangerous, risk-reward weapon should be used.
Language is the way of human communication. It is how thoughts, feelings, knowledge, opinions, beliefs, mannerisms and intentions are communicated and shared. Language is typically thought to just be spoken or written, however it has many depths. Language can be communicated through gestures, glances, changes in tone of voice and other supplementary communication devices to emphasize what we say and do (O'Neil, 1998-2009). Humans are the only species to have a known language communication. Most non-human species can link information between each other however no other species is known to have such a complex communication structure such as language (Gee, 2011).
