(b) Communication is how people interact with one another either verbally or
physically. They do this by speaking and expressing their feeling or by body
language, such as their facial expressions and the way they are standing, which
reflect their emotions. Communication is vital in relationships as it is a way of
understanding how the other is feeling, their needs and their emotions. It is also a
way of expressing yourself, your beliefs and your attitudes in order to understand or
relate to each other and to avoid conflict. Communication is a way of connecting to
another person to get to know them better and build a stronger relationship. The
way in which people communicate reflect the type of person they are or how they
feel about that person.
