Question description
In a paper 3-4 pages inlength
From ancient drum beats to e-mail,
methods of communications have progressed astronomically. However, no matter
the method of delivery, communications still face detrimental barriers, such as
misinterpretation, jargon, slang, and even poor pronunciation and dialect. It
is not enough to be able to speak more than one language; it is necessary to be
able to reason and convince in second or third languages. A breakdown in
communication is always the first rationalization when errors are made or a
directive is misinterpreted. Added to the linguistic problems, bureaucratic
stacks and layers of personnel, offices, bureaus, and agencies will cause
confusion, misdirection, and revision of documents and messages.
