Communication is often described as the process of exchanging information, ideas, feelings, and messages through various channels. It can be verbal, non-verbal, written, or visual. This process involves a sender, a message, a medium of transmission, and a receiver. Importantly, communication is a two-way process where feedback from the receiver influences the overall understanding and outcomes.

For postgraduate students, it is vital to explore communication beyond everyday interactions. At an advanced level, it becomes essential to understand not only how messages are conveyed but how they are received and interpreted in different contexts.
