             or body language. Listening, speaking, reading, and writing are all elements of communication that allow us to understand
             one another.

             effectively with people and customers requires communication skills.

           2.  What are the requirements for learning a language?

           3.  What do you mean by listening skills? How can one be able to listen attentively?
         Ans.  Listening is the key to any successful conversation. Good listening skills are essential to effective communication. When a
             conversation takes place, it’s important to give the other person your undivided attention.

         Ans.  The following are the different types of punctuation marks:
               Ð  Full stop: It marks the end of a sentence. It is also used to show abbreviations of long words. “.” is the sign used for a full
                stop. For example, ‘professor’ can be shortened as ‘Prof.’, when used as a title before a name. Example: This is a sentence.
                This is another sentence.
               Ð  Comma: We use a comma to indicate a pause in a sentence. We can also use a comma to separate items when we are
                listing more than two items in a row. “,” is the symbol used for the comma. Example: After the waiter gave me the menu,
                I ordered food. I bought apples, oranges, and grapes.
