"Language is a source of misunderstanding." -McLuhan, 1964 Language is a key to communicate. Language is a universal weapon, it can be used to express what you really feel. It can be used to unite people, but when misused it can cause a lot of trouble. Language is for everybody, everyone has different perspective and interpretation of how they heard or read a certain language, and that is how misunderstanding occurs. Does the user's/ audience's own background or experience affect the interpretation of messages? Why? Yes, everyone has different experiences. These can be a source of knowledge or it can be a basis of how they interpret things. Is it possible that a different individual derives a different meaning from the meaning? Explain. Yes, it is very possible. People have different  perspectives or views on everything. SIGNS AND SYMBOLS https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.instagram.android Instagram-
