communication |
STANDARD Working Definition:
communiction: any process in which people exchange information, ideas, experiences, and feelings whether verbal or non-verbal.
interpersonal communiction: a dialogical relationship among persons. A dyadic communication is a subset of IP where only two persons are involved in a dialogicl relationship.
intra-personal communication: a self-reflexive interior dialogue.
The exchange of a "message" (thoughts,
concepts, information, or stories about something) through some media (speech,
signals, writing, or behavior) between an "sender" and "receiver" where
they share some code (codes)
and contexts (experiences).
Communication is often dialogical. 
Disciplinary Definitions:
From a Cognitive Science point of view, the working defintion would be something like: communication is the interaction of two persons coding signals by assimilating frameworks from their memories and/or accommodating (blending) them to construct a world in which they make sense.
Comments:
Note that the standard definition privileges verbal communication and neglects visual aspects.
The concepts message, sender, receiver, code, and context are redefined in a Cognitive Science approach to the study of communication.
Notes
NOTE: a cognitive linguistic model of communication differs
