A person's articulation skill is one of the most important aspects of their personality. For successful communication, not only speaking is needed, but also assimilation, inflection, and modulation skills are required.
Using proper rhetoric increases the persuasion power of speech and has a deep impact on listeners. Moreover, when eloquence and oratory skills improve, people become capable of giving more cogent arguments.
Many times, even when there is fluency in using colloquial language, wrong connotation can create confusion in meaning. Therefore, understanding the nuance of words is essential. Similarly, when the lexicon is enriched, verbatim communication becomes easier.
A skilled speaker can create consensus and successfully carry out the dissemination of their words. Using euphemism makes even difficult messages easy to understand, which is one of the techniques of skilled communication.
Therefore, skilled communication is not just word play, but it is a prolific art of expressing human thoughts and emotions.
