Human communication involves which of the following factors?

Human communication involves building symbols, using symbols and manipulating symbols, since people create signs, deploy them and rework them to make and share meaning.

Statement 1, building symbols, is the making of signs that stand for ideas and things in the world.

Statement 2, using symbols, is putting those signs to work in messages that others can read.

Statement 3, manipulating symbols, is combining and adjusting them to express new and more complex meanings.

Exclusion of culture runs against human communication, which is soaked in culture rather than shut off from it.

Non-use of symbols contradicts the symbolic core of human communication, which cannot proceed without signs at all.
