Speaking or writing involves sharing your perspective with others. If you talk to yourself, the action is a reflection of the communication process, but you play the role of audience. In your head, you may make sense of your words and their meaning, but when I hear what you said, what you meant may escape me. I might not \u201cget it\u201d because I don\u2019t know you, your references, your perspectives, your word choices, or your underlying meaning and motivation for speaking in the first place. In this chapter we\u2019ll discuss perspectives, and how people perceive information, as we learn how communication is an imperfect bridge to understanding. It requires our constant attention, maintenance, and effort.\r\n\r\nKnowing your audience involves understanding others, and their perspectives, to see if they understand your words, examples, or the frames of reference you use to communicate your experiences, points, and conclusions. Ask yourself when you last had a miscommunication with someone. No doubt it was fairly recently, as it is for most people.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s not people\u2019s fault that language, both verbal and nonverbal, is an imperfect system. We can, however, take responsibility for the utility and limitations of language to try to gain a better understanding of how we can communicate more effectively. As a communicator, consider both the role of the speaker and the audience and not only what and how you want to communicate but also what and how your audience needs you to communicate with them in order to present an effective message.\r\n<div id=\"mclean-ch03_s00_f01\" class=\"im_figure im_small im_editable im_block\">\r\n\r\n<span class=\"im_title-prefix\">Figure 3.3<\/span> Solution to Introductory Exercise 5 (the \u201cNine-Dot Problem\u201d)\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/textimgs.s3.amazonaws.com\/buscomm\/section_07\/44f715a8369cb6ce716779382afeb4f6.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images-archive-read-only\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/299\/2015\/01\/20165623\/image11.jpg\" alt=\"image\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nTake, for example, the word \u201clove.\u201d Yes, we recognize those four little letters all in a row, but what does it really mean?

Does your use of the word in any given context allow the audience to get any closer to what you mean by this word, \u201clove\u201d? The key here is context, which provides clues to how you mean the word and what its use means to you.
