What is Communication?


Communication have two way firstly is verbal and secondly is non-verbal. Verbal and non-verbal always used both in communication. Verbal communication  is oral and written but in our verbal communication always have non-verbal communication. This is because non-verbal communication is used to help strengthen oral communication purposes. Non-verbal communication are such as body movement, language, eyes context, time, power distance, and so on.

In communication all information come from source and sent to receiver. Communication process is start from source choose one good channel sent information to receiver and source get feedback from receiver. In this process noise always have in channel. So, source should be choosing the best channel to use for avoid obstacles as far as possible. Channel can be use in communication are face to face, radio, internet, television, telephone and others.


Face to face communication is a better channel because we will get feedback in the same time. In communication receiver need to have good listening skill and knowledge because all information should be understand very well. If the receiver have poor listening skill, communication difficult to successful. Next, knowledge and communication skill also very important in our communication. Source and receiver should have same knowledge or same thinking for easy to understand. For example, doctor give information to patients, the patients will trust all what the doctor said. This is because the doctor have some knowledge about disease and medical. But in other concept, if farmer tell patients about this information, sure the patients difficult to trust because the farmer haven't knowledge about this.

Purpose of communication is for sharing information, influence others, and so on. Communication is very important in our life. This is because we should communicate every day in intrapersonal and interpersonal. Intrapersonal communication is communicate in own mine. For example, we think something or we ask our self. Interpersonal communication is act of communicate with other people.
