Communication Barriers
Language and Communication are two faces of the same coin. Having the expertise of a particular language will not always result in effective communication. The first taste of language comes to us when we are born, and as we grow, we learn to speak our ‘Mother Tongue.’ However, as we grow older, we are exposed to different communication modes, namely; dialect, culture, ethnic background, facial expression, hand gestures, etc. Language is essential for communication. However, it is ironic that people with speech impairments effectively communicate through different hand gestures called ‘sign language.’ English is supposedly known as the global language and again ironic because knowing won’t help us communicate in a place like China. Hence the inability to communicate using a language is known as a ‘language barrier’ to communication. Also, we should know about the dangers of poppers for our health.
