Oral communication is the oral transmission of ideas, feelings,
attitudes, opinions or information between two or more persons. It is a
language based communication that takes place through words spoken. In oral
communication both the sender and the receiver reciprocally express their ideas
or opinions using oral means. Oral communication usually takes place through
face-to-face conversation or group discussion. It may also take place through
telephone calls and radio or television talks.
In oral communication, there is direct interaction of ideas and facts between the sender and the receiver. Perhaps it is the most effective way of sending one's views, feelings, sentiments etc. to other persons. When it takes place through face-to-face conversation, group discussion or telephone calls, communicatee's reaction can be easily ascertained.
