Communication can be defined as the process of sending and receiving messages. Communication involves the exchange of thoughts, messages, or information with a person or persons. Communication can be verbal or nonverbal, written or visual. There are many ways to communicate with one another most people only think verbal when you talk about communication.

demonstrative communication needs to be matched with our verbal message; if these two behaviors do not match with a similar “tone” misinterpretations can occur. Demonstrative communication can only be effective when the listener understands the message the person is trying to send.
Effective communication is necessary for life’s relationships, work, and play. To achieve effective communication it is important to maintain eye contact this ensures alertness to the conversation. Eye contact can also make sure the other person knows it is importation and that you are talking to them. One cause of misunderstanding is the verbal message does not match the demonstrative communication. Effective communication requires active listening from both. The messenger wants to watch the receiver to see if they understand the message and be prepared for questions and feedback that the receiver might have. We have to maintain eye contact as well as positive body language and facial expressions to maintain communication. When the listener completely understands the message sent the message is
effective. Ineffective communication may be caused when the messenger is using language the receiver does not understand, when angry, or loss of eye contact. The messenger may be speaking too quickly for the receiver to pick up the information. If both the receiver and listener are angry he or she will receive the information wrong. If you are trying to communicate when you’re mad it can cause confusion. You may speak loud, cut the other off and not listen to what is being said. You will only hear what you want to hear. Another sign of ineffective communication is if the messenger or the receiver does more talking than listening. For example: Some families have fallen apart due to miscommunication and for sending the wrong information and the receiver getting an offensive message. This is cause by not saying the proper words and using the incorrect facial expressions, body language and gestures. Effective communication is the process of two-way communication between the messenger and receiver. If communication is ineffective it can cause confusion to both the messenger and the receiver. Another way it can be ineffective would be if you don’t keep eye contact this can give the receiver or the messenger time to wonder away from the subject. If you lose eye contact that can mean it is not interesting and you are losing the communication. Not listening to what one has to say and be cut off but the messenger or the receiver would also cause problems and miscommunication. Demonstrative communication involves listening and responding to the message. Listening and responding depends on who you are talking to and what is being discussed. If you are not listening when someone is speaking to you, your response may be false or not correct according to what is being discussed or with the tone it was said in. Listening is one of the most important skills you can have. How well you listen has a major impact on your personal and work life. In order to listen, a person has to hear and look at you. This way they get the tone of you verbal communication as well as the demonstrative communication. Demonstrative communication reinforces verbal communication in a conversation. To fully understand what someone is saying you have to hear the words as well as watch the body language of the people in the conversation.
