Semantic barrier of communication is implied when the :

  • A.Receiver is fully attentive
  • B.Signal is loud and clear
  • C.Receiver fails to understand the meaning
  • D.Message is flawlessly implied

Answer: C

A semantic barrier exists when the receiver fails to understand the meaning.

Semantic barriers arise from the meaning of words and symbols: jargon, ambiguous words, words with several meanings, poor translation or differences in language. The message may arrive perfectly clearly, yet the receiver attaches a different meaning to it or none at all.

A fully attentive receiver and a loud, clear signal describe the absence of psychological and physical barriers, and a message that is flawlessly understood is the opposite of a barrier, so none of the other options describes a semantic barrier.
