Gaps? What gaps? But should this go under conversation? instead? I don't know, I'm not a linguist or communications expert. Not all talking is conversation, either in the general sense of talking to another person or in the stricter sense of talking to another person and listening to that other person also. Perhaps this page should be strictly for the physical phenomenon of human talking. Or should that be under speech?? :-) --KQ Speech is the saying of the words (i.e. a transmitter), but in no way implies that the listener (reciever) has actually gotten anything out of it. That is how UDP protocol is structured. I think that talking to an active reviever TCP is really what conversation is about, but communication of ideas requiring understanding on the part of the reciever is very far beyond the scope of talk. :If I talk to a duck, that is a speech, for while the duck may hear, not much else is happening. -- Mike Dill Somebody send us a linguist. ;-) --KQ |
