The good news is that anyone can become an effective Let us know. [email protected] communicator. The door to effective communication will open to anyone who uses these three keys: (1) Desire: Human infants have an inborn desire to communicate, and that desire enables them to pick up words quickly and to enlarge their vocabularies continuously. (2) Understanding the process: Reduced to basics, communication consists of sending and receiving messages. Language is the primary conveyer of thoughts and ideas. It turns abstract concepts into words that symbolize those thoughts. Those words take the form of spoken sounds or written symbols. (3) Master the basic skills: Some people think the first requisite for good communication is an exhaustive vocabulary. Some people think it's impossible to communicate well without first absorbing a heavy dose of grammar, then memorizing a dictionary of English usage. Read the Gettysburg Address, The Sermon on the Mount or Robert Frost's poetry. The communications that endure are written in plain, simple language. Friday, October 3, 2008 OPINION Chronicle Staff:
