2. Analysis

We are in a very busy world where we cannot resist but to communicate.

We always engage in communication either face-to-face, using a telephone,
cellphone or email. In whatever means we use in communicating with our
loved ones, friends, colleagues and superiors, we certainly have a purpose in
doing so.
Our intention for communicating may vary such as to control someone to
do something, to socialize with peers, to motivate a classmate to perform
better, to inform a friend about future plans, to express how we feel about the
situation, to share information about an article we read, to give instructions on
how to operate a gadget, to ask for advice on handling an avid admirer or to
persuade someone to participate in a worthy endeavor.
The following are the four functions of communication:

1. Regulation or Control
2. Social Interaction
3. Motivation
4. Information

1. Regulation or Control

attempting influence the actions of others and accepting or
refusing directions.

found under regulation function.

laboratory room
b. Making requests, making suggestions and recommendations

Montemayor to be your eye specialist.

excel more in our class.
e. Requesting and granting permission
