Communicationbeginswiththeconcernsofanother.Itmeansthatyoucan’tjustcomehomefromschool,gouptoyourroomandignoreeveryone.Evenifyoujustsay“Hi”,andseehowtheirdaywasforfiveminutes,itisbetterthannothing.

Ifyoulookeduptheword“communication”inadictionary,itwouldsay“theexchangeofideas,theconveyance（表达）ofinformation,correspondence（通信）,meansofcommunication:
