Extracts from a recent lecture
from liu presentation -Communication for Managers
- Thinking gives rise to words
- Words are not necessary for thought –but they help
- Many words and many people give rise to the need for cooperation which needs communication
- The need for communication leads to speech and grammar and language
- Grammar is not necessary for thought – but it helps
- Language is not necessary for communication – but it helps
- Speech is not necessary for language – but it helps
- Message is an information package
- Meaning comes first and is necessary for message and needs an algorithm for the conversion
- Information is whatever can be detected by our senses (sensory, aural, visual, olefactory…..)
