TYPES OF COMMUNICATION

ACCORDING TO CONTEXT
In this sub-section, context in communication is referred
to as a composite of people interacting with each other.
Communication may also be classified according to
context: (1) intrapersonal; (2) interpersonal; (3)
extended; (4) organizational communication; and (5)
intercultural communication.
INTRAPERSONAL
COMMUNICATION
The prefix intra- comes from the Latin for
"within." Having a conversation with one's inner
self is an example of intrapersonal
communication. Self-talk, inner monologue, and
internal dialogue are all terms that have been
used to describe this phenomenon.
Psychologists use terms like "self-verbalization"
and "self-statement" to describe this
phenomenon.
 INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION
The Latin prefix inter-, in contrast to the more common intra-,
designates a space between, among, or together. When people talk
to one another, they engage in a two-way conversation. As it
happens, however, a transaction is not always the result, as the
interaction at hand may be nothing more than a greeting, a chance to
get to know someone, or a casual discussion. This is sometimes
referred to as "group communication" and can take place in settings
ranging from a pair to a larger gathering.
 INTERPERSONAL TRANSACTIONAL
"How are you?"
"can you tell me where to find this place?"
"What is your name?"
"what will be the theme of the conference?"
"How old are you?"
"can you furtherly explain your presented argument"
"Did you enjoy the movie yesterday?"
EXTENDED COMMUNICATION
Extended communication involves the use of electronic media. Unlike before when it only called for
the use of television and radio, nowadays, the description of extended communication may be
expanded as to include tele, audio, or phone conferencing; videoconferencing: Skype calls; and
other technological means. For example, linked by a telecommunication system, people who are
far apart, or are far from the venue, can participate in a meeting or a conference. In an e-conference
like this, participants may not be physically present but are still able to track down the lectures and
participate actively because of the mass articulation and dissemination of information, allowing
speakers to reach a wider group of listeners. Since extended communication is public in nature,
speakers are expected to be prepared when they speak, making their language more formal.
 ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION
With this type, the focus is on the role that
communication plays in organizational contexts.
Organizations comprise individuals who work for the
company. When you graduate, for example, you become
a professional, either working for a company or putting up
your own. Whichever, you should know that each
organization has expectations that you as a
communication professional should meet or that you as
the owner may establish.
