People who know a language are referred to as ‘speakers’ of that language, as if speaking included all other kinds of knowing. Effective verbal or spoken communication is dependent on a number of factors and cannot be fully isolated from other important interpersonal skills such as non-verbal communication, listening skills and clarification.

The channel may be oral or written, the message verbal and nonverbal. Other than the verbal information, the message is understood to comprise aural, visual and tactile messages. The sender’s encoded message and intended meaning is then decoded and understood by the receiver, though not always as intended by the sender. Feedback, which is an important element in the communication process, reverses the process- and conveys the response back to the sender. Especially, in English Language how we communicate depends on the purpose behind our communication. Purpose is related to needs and our needs for communication may be unconscious or conscious. In face-to-face (spoken) communication, the verbal forms of communication reveal our conscious purposes while the nonverbal forms express our unconscious purposes. Verbal communication (language) is a conscious effort to produce and send a message using sounds, symbols, words and visuals.
