message.

conveyed by the sender.

• As messages are delivered instantly, there is no scope for rectification of wrong words used in oral or written
messages.
• Great difficulty in communicating with people living in different time zones.

familiar with. Either you have to hire a person who works as a translator or install a software for your digital
communication.
