Communication
Communication is how we send messages to each other. It can be wordless, like body language. It can be written like a letter or message. It can also be spoken. Communication is very different from one situation to another.

Tips for fast and neat handwriting?
Just write joined up and use a fountain pen it helps. Make sure the instrument you write with has a smooth tip so you won't be expending energy into the mere act of writing whatever you need to write. What you want to focus on is simply getting the words down onto paper, so that's the first step.
If your goal is to write more thoughts down onto paper, regardless of what represents the thought (whether that be entire words or what you should focus on--by abbreviation). Things don't necessarily have to be technically abbreviated the "correct" way; just shorthand a few words that you know you're going to be writing more than once or twice every now and then (ex: In American history class, abbreviate "American" by "Am" if you find you're frequently using it in your notes).
If your objective is to simply write at a faster speed words unchanged (NOT using abbreviation), I write at a slant--like cursive almost, but intertwining print where it's just naturally faster to write whichever letter in the word(s). The more comfortable your hand is writing, the easier it is to write faster, and everything comes through with practice.
The formation of letters needs to become both legible and fast - it needs to be practiced so often that it becomes 'automatic' - so that the writer no longer has to think about how to form letters and words. Practice increases the accuracy of fine motor control and as this increases, it opens up a whole new world - the writer is now free to focus on the content - that is to write their thoughts and ideas, to write what they want to write about without being distracted by having to remember how to write each letter of each word as they go along! Research has shown that it is best for both right-handers and Left-handers to begin in a relaxed way with the rhythmic patterns that underpin handwriting. This approach avoids muscular tensions stemming from anxiety and results in the child developing a personal style that is legible, fluent and fast so that they can write quickly enough to get down what they want to say while it is still in their head.

Letter of explanation for overdrafts?
To whom it may concern;
In the month of September I had an unusual amount of overdrafts. This is not typical, and I am in the habit of managing my checking more efficiently. This was not a typical month, and I had used up my savings cushion for my earnest money check.
There were a few purchases that I had made in error, and due to some personal circumstances, I had not been online those days to check my balance. Normally, I have a savings cushion to transfer from when I reach a low balance. I plan on replenishing my savings with the remainder of my earnest money.
Sincerely,
Alanis Morrisette's song "Ironic"? Actually, the song has no examples of irony. They are just examples of things that suck. However, because the song title is "Ironic" and actually contains no example of irony, the song itself is ironic. The contents are the opposite of what you expect it to be about.
examples of irony :
a. my dad will be so happy if he will see my card in vibrant colors
b. its so nice of you to read my letters without asking my permission
c you're so beautiful you look like my grandmother's feet
d. i lost my purse , this is my lucky day
---- == == some examples are i know that i know nothing
- Sir, may I say you are as smart as Einstein ever was.
But now consider that everyone in the room - except the boss - knows that the employee has a dog named Einstein, and that dog was the real intent of of the employee's named reference. This would be exquisitely ironic, because the boss would truly believe the employee's statement to be high praise, whereas everyone else would understand the statement for the ribald insult it was meant to be.
(Example from another question on this site.)
1. A police officer getting arrested.
2. The Titanic: an 'unsinkable' ship that sunk.
3. A fisherman who is allergic to fish.
4. An antislavery person who owns slaves (that would have been back in the time of the civil war)
5. A race horse that can't run fast at all.
It's ironic that most sentences beginning "It's ironic that ..." are not ironic. Like that one.
I'll think of another nine later, whne I am feeling less cynical.
i lost my wallet.this must be my lucky day.

Can you explain the advantages and disadvantages of oral communication?
Advantages of Oral Communication Non-verbal cues are combined with verbal skills, adding more dimension to the communication experience.
- Is instant and immediate in its conveying and receiving of information.
- Creates transparency, heightening chances of the audience understanding the meaning of the speaker
- Builds self-esteem of both the audience and the speaker.
- Builds interpersonal and intrapersonal relationships by allowing the speaker to interact with the audience directly.
- Almost instant feedback through the body language and reactions of the audience, allowing speaker to gauge the level of understanding and attention given by the audience, as such speaker can alter his way of speaking to accommodate the audience to maximize understanding.
- A good source of entertainment to eradicate boredom. Oral communication is at work everywhere. Verbal chatting is also a form of oral communication.
- Helps to builds the credibility of speaker.
- Allows the audience to judge not only the content of the speech, but also how it is put across in words and whether the speaker is effective and persuasive. Disadvantages of Oral Communication -Unrepeatable - Information retention is difficult, it is harder to store or retrieve. The 80-20 rule comes into play here-the majority of the audience is likely to forget 80% of the information, while retaining only 20%- thus making the speaker's task very difficult. - Selective hearing, receiving information may be distorted resulting in miscommunication. - Audience must be active listeners. - The same words said in different tones may convey very different messages. - Difficulty in finding words to correctly convey meaning in a short period of time. - Some may find it easier to organise information through writing. - Easier to visualise the flow of information? This idea is good but only if the visualisations, eg. ppt presentations, are kept simple, short and to the point for the audience to grasp the idea easily. Presentation of too much written material is difficult to grasp in a short span of time. - People usually take more time to communicate an idea.

What is the Communication Cycle?
Communication is a fundamental part of all of our lives. There are many different methods of communication and we are gaining more and more all the time. Communication ranges from a note stuck on the fridge door, to video conferencing and phoning. The communication cycle is a structure that was thought up about how we communicate.
It suggests that we 'Aim' what we want to say, how we'll say it, what we want the other person to do with the information. This is the stage in which we think particularly about how we will communicate the information and to who we wish to communicate with. Once we have organized what we want to say, who to say it to and how to say it, we have to consider social influences and other things that may 'change' what we want to say.
This is the 'Encoding' stage. We have to consider what language to say it in, what we assume of the receiver and are these assumptions correct? We also have to consider what the Receiver may be assuming about US. Their assumptions may hinder and change what we say. The next stage is vital in successful communication. This stage is the 'Transmission' stage. We need to be able to transmit the message that we wish to communicate in right format and at the correct time. We need to consider if there will be any distractions to hinder our communication attempt, if we need to summarize and if we can add anything to increase the clarity of what we are trying to say.
When we receive the information from someone, if they are speaking, we must take into account that we think 3 times faster than we speak, and therefore, it is much easier for a speaker's words to get muddled up with other thoughts and distractions. Reactions and questions must not happen until after the speaker has finished with what they were saying. This stage is called 'Receiving'. The next stage in the Communication Cycle is called 'Decoding'. This is the opposite of encoding. If the Sender has transmitted the information correctly and has given enough attention to what they are saying, including their body language and tone of voice, then you should be able to decode their message effectively.
We may sometimes feel that some Senders are not approachable in certain circumstances, but we must remember, the meaning of the message is the responsibility of the Sender and not the Receiver. The last stage in the Communication Cycle is 'Responding'. This gives the Receiver the chance to ask any questions and this also gives the Sender the chance to realize if they have missed out any stages in the Communication Cycle.
It is no longer necessary to use the word "stop" in a telegram, a dot was more expensive in earlier days than the word stop, that's why it was used at the end of a sentence. In our days the dot is just a normal punctuation mark. On http://www.telegramsonline.co.uk you can take a look how to send a telegram these days to any country in the world.
First, put the name of the person, then the address and send your message.
