Ambiguity

Ambiguity is when something has more than one meaning. Ambiguity can be confusing to many people and the meaning of sentences can be unclear. It was interesting to understand the concept of ambiguity in class. Ambiguity will help me as a communicator because now I will understand that I need to be more clear about what I am trying to say. Instead of having bland answers that can mean many different things. My favorite example in class was when we talked about the sign for vehicles that said reserved for green vehicles which can mean many different things. This was a new concept that I have never heard of before. Now, that I understand the concept that something can have more than one meaning, I will try to be more clear in my daily life. An example of this that happens on a typical day would be at work when I am speaking with the children. I will say something to a child and they look at me with a confused expression, now I understand why. 😯
