Editor's Notes
Communication breakdown- failure to exchange ideas/information.
Communication is a process but if the sender and the receiver did not understand each other there will be a failure to exchange information.
A speaker and a listener are affected by their surroundings.
Ex. A hot temperature is a physical barrier making the speaker and the listener uncomfortable.
3. Misunderstanding or difference in interpretation may occur.
