Verbal Communication

Language enables us to Communicate our ideas, share out knowledge to others with greater precision than would otherwise be possible. you can not think, imagine without language,  whenever you think, you use particular language it might anything, might be your own language, mother tongue or might be foreign language. language make group co-operation and allows information and knowledge to be transferred from individual to individual, from place to place and from generation to generation to generation. It also allows for the accumulation of knowledge. Verbal communication is sub-divided into Oral and Written communication.

Verbal Communication is divided into to sub-part:

  1. Oral Communication

1.Oral Communication:

We can define oral communication as spoken phrases(shortly word) are used. it is face-2-face communication(like we talk with people in daily life), oral communication is effective due sound, speed of voice, clarity of voice, and importantly topic of the discussion.

Advantage: 

It helps to get instant feedback. you can read his facial expression and body movements, some can tell that he or she should trust or not.

Disadvantage:

The major disadvantage of oral communication is person can not think more on topic and give powerful feedback.

2.  Written Communication:

Written communication can be defined as  written stuff like note(symbol or smiley) are used to communicate. it can printed through modern technology or hand written also. written communication can  be done through the letter(mail), reports, or electronic mail(email) etc. it is dominated by grammar and words used, writing style, ease of reading and language used.

Advantage: 

Message, report or email can be revised as many times you want before dispatching it to concerned person. written stuff gives person time to understand it and send appropriate answer to message.  written stuff can be stored and used later for work and it can also work as proof in some situation

Disadvantage:

Written communication does not gives sender instant reply that makes it time consuming and delay in further work.
