Answer 1

The two best statements that explain the misinterpretation are:* **Communication can be intentional or unintentional:** While you *intended* to convey a specific message, your instructor unintentionally interpreted something else. Unintentional communication can occur through body language, tone of voice, or even word choice that is ambiguous.* **Meanings are in people not words:** Words themselves are just symbols. The meaning we attach to them comes from our individual experiences, perspectives, and cultural backgrounds. Your instructor assigned a different meaning to your words than the one you intended.
