BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false

CStatement I is true but Statement II is false

DStatement I is false but Statement II is true

Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Explanation

Both statements hold, for a lack of common understanding is indeed a psychological barrier and language devoid of experience does lead to communication failure.

The first statement is sound because when minds do not share meaning, messages fail to connect.

Differences in perception, attitude and background block the mental meeting the message needs.

The second statement is sound because words without lived experience behind them carry no real meaning.

Any message the receiver has never experienced stays empty and is misread or lost.

Shared understanding and experience backed language are both needed for communication to succeed.
