I’ve learned throughout the years that not every conversation needs a reply. Also, some are intimidated by your education and feel belittled during a conversation. I tend to make small talk and keep it simple.…

“Verbal communication is the spoken word and includes actual words, intended and inferred meanings, tone and inflection.”(Lee, Duck, McMahan, & Lambert, 2011) Verbal communication is what most people use as communication everyday. Many companies start their business day verbally communicating with every employee. This is usually when the daily game plan is gone over. Everyone states what their “to do list” is for the day and if there are adjustments to be made then, this is the time it is done. This kind of communication lets everyone feel that they are part of the larger goal.…
In the essay, “Mother Tongue” author Amy Tan, discusses the “power of language – the way it can evoke an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth.” Tan began to explain that when she was speaking to a large group about her book, “The Joy Luck Club,” she suddenly realized the different “Englishes” she uses. As she proceeds, she mentions the time when she was walking down the street with her mother and husband discussing prices of new and old furniture, where she became aware once again of the switch in her English. She tells the reader that when she switches her Englishes to speak to her loved ones, their kind of English becomes their language of intimacy that relates to family talk and the language she grew up with. Tan later…

Recently, in my College Writing II class, I had the opportunity to read, “Mother Tongue” by Amy Tan. I enjoyed reading the essay so much that I decided to write my own analysis. “Mother Tongue” is an essay based on the power of language and the will to communicate. However, the essay is not just about language itself, but also about the relationship between a mother, Mrs. Tan, and her daughter, Amy Tan, who moved to America for the possibility of getting a better life and living the American dream. Mrs. Tan encountered difficulties fitting in society because of her spoken “broken” English. “Mother Tongue” is also about changing but at the same time keeping your culture, heritage, and roots. In the essay, Amy talks about her experiences and feelings about the use of the English language. Without the use of Standard English, a person is known to be a foreigner and sometimes misjudged.…
Effective communication plays a significant role in providing proper care for patients. According to Cheesebro, O’Connor, and Rios (2010) “Communication is sometimes defined as the process of sending and receiving messages” (para. 14). For the communication to be effective both the sender, and the receiver must understand the message. The way individuals communicate is altered according to their audience or environment. For example if an instructor is communicating through small talk his or her tone and vocabulary would differ from communicating through informational talk. The same goes for when an individual communicates with children or adults. Even though the tone and style of communication may be altered to fit the audience, the process of communication has to stay the same to be effective. Effective communication allows health care professionals to gain trust in a reluctant consumer and handle cultural differences among patients.…
