Communication
COMMUNICATION.While conversation in AV [Note: Authorized Version.] means manner of life, conduct, communication means conversation, talk. So Col 3:6 filthy communication (RV [Note: Revised Version.] shameful speaking) and elsewhere. The verb to communicate is now used in a restricted sense, so that its occurrences in AV [Note: Authorized Version.] , where it has the general meaning of making common cause with one, may be misunderstood. Cf. the Rhemish tr. [Note: translate or translation.] of Joh 4:9 : For the Jewes do not communicate with the Samaritanes (AV [Note: Authorized Version.] have no dealings with).

Communication
A term used to refer to a certain feature of sign-situations, viz. the identity, similarity or correspondence of what is understood by the interpreter with what is, or is intended to be, expressed by the speaker.
By a familiar ambiguity the term is used indiscriminately to refer either to the process by which such accordance is brought about, or that with regard to which accord between the speaker and interpreter is achieved.
The definition is intended to cover the communication of attitudes, evaluations, desires, etc., as well as of judgments or assertions. See Functions of Language, Speech Situation. — M.B.
