Recap

• Communication is a two-way process in which information or messages are communicated between individuals
through the use of words, symbols, signs, or behaviour.
• To learn a language, four fundamental skills must be developed: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
• Communication requires a sender who encodes and transmits a message across a channel, and a receiver who
decodes the message and provides feedback.
• Feedback is vital in communication since it allows you to determine whether or not the receiver understood the
message.
• Messages can be readily misconstrued if the ability to listen attentively is not present.
• Effective communication abilities enable us to convey the message accurately and entirely.
• One of the most fundamental communication abilities is the ability to listen.
• Active listening is a crucial skill in professional settings, as it enhances communication, strengthens relationships, and
improves productivity.
• Active listening can have an impact on your job effectiveness, the quality of your relationships with others, and as a
result, your general well-being.
• To ensure active listening, use the acronym ‘RESPECT.’
• There are many barriers to active listening like biases, being preoccupied, and audio or visual distractions.

• Parts of speech are the classifications of words in any language that are based on their function inside a sentence.
• A ‘sentence’ is a combination of words that conveys a complete meaning, thought, or action.
• In English, there are 15 primary punctuation symbols or signs.
• Nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs are the basic parts of speech.
• A well-constructed sentence typically includes a subject and a predicate.
• Sentences can be simple or complex, active or passive, declarative or interrogative or exclamatory or imperative.
• When composing a paragraph, make sure all the sentences share the same idea.
