Communication

Communication is a process that involves the transmission of information from one point of origin to a point of arrival. The man, moreover, as a social, has a more complex form of communication and unexpected possibilities: communication through sign systems. Among these, the most powerful is the spoken language.

Verbal language is the principal instrument of human communication and is the foundation of coexistence. Language is one of the foundations of progress, the vehicle of transmission of knowledge and culture, science and technology.

The media are becoming the main instrument of socialization,because it has the ability to multiply indefinitely and get messages anywhere.

ELEMENTS OF COMMUNICATION

In the communication process must take into account two important aspects: the speaker's intent and knowledge of the reality outside.

Issuer. Transmitting the information element (person, institutional organization, alarm)

Receiver. Element that receives and interprets information. (Individual and collective)

Message. Information that is transmitted. Keep in mind IH and EC

Canal. Artificial or natural vehicle for transmitting the message. (natural or artificial physical environment). Artificial channels retain information and save time t spatial barriers.

Code. Set of signs and rules of combination that enables the development of the message.

Context. Situation surrounding the act of communication and influencing their interpretation. We must take into account the linguistic and the extralinguistic circumstances.

Depending on the context, messages can no longer make sense or have different meanings.

-- Bidirectional: transmitter and receiver swap roles.

-- Unidirectional. It goes from sender to receiver, but not vice versa (the media).

The act of communication may be affected by noise. Noise: are disturbances that hinder communication. (illegibility of the letter, interference). The issuer neutralizes the disturbances by introducing compensatory mechanisms. Redundancy. This is the way to counteract the noise and ensure receipt of the message.

(raising his voice typographical resource use).

Signs: are elements or detectable physical realities that represent another element or reality. Its function is to be instruments of communication and vehicle of thought. Cla:

Icon. Maintains a similarity with what it represents.

Clue. Has a relationship of contiguity with what it represents. It lacks communicative intent and needs a suitable interpreter.

Symbol. It's kind of arbitrary, conventional, and unmotivated, as its form and meaning has been established as a result of social agreement. It has great capacity significantly. To this group belong most of linguistic signs.

Verbal communication is established through verbal language and can use two channels:

Oral. It is spontaneous and direct, and between sender and receiver is an interaction. It is dominated by emotional content on the logical and superimposes several codes: words, gestures, looks. Use or registration colloquial phrases, unfinished and sometimes, with lexical imprecision. Intonation and pausing help clarify the content.

Written. It is thoughtful and precise, and has no extra-linguistic support. There is no interaction between sender and receiver but is more durable over time. Use precise language, varied, adjusted to the standard language and sometimes registration is imposed worship.

The linguistic sign is the result of the indissoluble union of a signifier (succession of articulated sounds that make up a word), meaning (idea or concept that our mind perceives. Features:

Arbitrariness: there is no similarity between the sequence of sounds and the concept conveyed.

Conventionality and immutability: the relationship between signified and the signifier is a convention or agreement.

Linearity: it develops in time and space, its elements are ordered.

Double articulation is divisible into smaller units that can be combined with others and form a new sequence of words. For the first joint of the sign is divided into monemes, for the second, phoneme

The communicative intention. Requirements:

"That the recipient decrypts the message correctly, thanks to their knowledge of the code.

"That the receiver recognizes the intention of the issuer.

F. Representative: focuses on the context. The goal of communication is to convey information about the reality outside. Its characteristic feature is the objectivity, hence it is the dominant role of technical and scientific language. Lack of linguistic resources.

F. Expressive is oriented to the issuer. The message stresses the feelings and the speaker's attitude to what they are saying. It is proper to the colloquial register. The subjectivity of the speaker of the speaker is reflected by linguistic marks: Interjections, affective suffixes.

F. Appellate: it is oriented toward the receiver, the communication's intention is to influence the behavior of the receiver to respond to a question, perform an action, change of attitude ...

It is characteristic of advertising language and ideological propaganda. Its brands language is the vocative, the imperative mood ...

F. Phatic:acts on the channel. It belongs to messages whose purpose is to establish a communication channel between transmitter and receivers, to extend it or close it. It is typical of condolence, congratulations, dedications, toasts ...

F. Extralinguistic: It is centered in the code. It is characteristic of the messages that language itself is taken as a reference.

F. Poetics is directed to the message. Appears in expressions in which the message calls attention to itself. Using several resources that act on the phonetic level, morphosyntactic and lexical, the impact especially on how the statement, how it is said.

It belongs to the literature and especially poetry.
