This document discusses different types of communication used to convey information between individuals. It defines language and communication, explaining that communication is the process of sharing ideas through symbolic messages. There are both verbal and non-verbal forms of communication. Verbal communication includes spoken and written language, while non-verbal communication conveys meaning through facial expressions, body language, eye contact, posture, and other psychological and paralinguistic cues.
