About Lesson

The chapter “Ways of Communication” in Class 9 Commercial Application introduces various methods and modes of communication used in commercial organizations. Here’s a summary:

1. **Verbal Communication**: This involves the use of spoken words and includes face-to-face conversations, telephonic conversations, and video conferencing. Verbal communication is often immediate and allows for feedback.

2. **Non-verbal Communication**: Non-verbal communication includes gestures, facial expressions, body language, and tone of voice. It can convey emotions, attitudes, and intentions without using words.

3. **Written Communication**: This involves the use of written words to convey messages. It includes emails, letters, memos, reports, and notices. Written communication provides a permanent record and is often used for formal communication.

4. **Visual Communication**: Visual communication involves the use of visual elements such as graphs, charts, diagrams, and pictures to convey information. It is often used to make complex information easier to understand.

5. **Electronic Communication**: Electronic communication involves the use of electronic devices and technologies such as computers, smartphones, and the internet to exchange information. It includes emails, instant messaging, and social media.

6. **Formal Communication**: Formal communication follows a predefined path and is often hierarchical. It includes official memos, reports, and notices. Formal communication is structured and follows specific rules and protocols.

7. **Informal Communication**: Informal communication is casual and spontaneous. It includes conversations among colleagues, gossip, and informal emails. Informal communication helps build relationships and can be faster than formal communication.

Understanding the various ways of communication is crucial for effective communication in commercial organizations. Different situations may require different modes of communication, and knowing when to use each method can help ensure clear and effective communication.
