Explain how language is a potential barrier to communication.
(79) VerifiedAnswers will vary. Language can be a barrier to communication. Growing numbers of businesspeople are bilingual or multilingual, but even subtle distinctions in dialects within the same language can be barriers. For example, the word chemist means a molecular scientist in the United States and a drugstore worker in Great Britain. Language barriers are created across disciplines and professional boundaries by technical terminology. Although acronyms and professional jargon may be very useful tools of communication within in a discipline, they may serve only to confuse and derail any attempt at clear understanding by those unfamiliar with the profession. When doing business, it's best to use simple, direct, declarative language. One should speak in brief sentences and employ terms or words already used by one's audience. As much as possible, one should speak in the language of the listener. Above all else, one should not use jargon or technical language except with those who are already familiar with it. Please see the section "Barriers and Gateways to Communication" for more information.
