When the authors refer to words that mean different things in different languages, the symbolic characteristic of communication they are referring.

Symbols are considered the signifier that represents the signified meaning. There are two main types of symbolic communication :-

  • Verbal Symbolic Communication- It refers to the communication which uses words.
  • Non - Verbal Symbolic Communication- It refers to the communication which uses sign and body language.

It is so because symbolic communication includes speech, sign language, writing (printed or braille script), image/picture communication systems, and tactile communication systems. As communication is the means of exchanging the information, ideas, opinions, etc., with each other.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Taking the context into consideration, we can complete the sentence in the following manner:

- The <u>ailing </u>young woman is often frustrated because, although she knows her debilitation is not her fault, she still feels guilty about her lassitude.

  • In order to complete the sentence, we must first look for context clues in it that may help us understand what words should be used.
  • The sentence mentions an ailing young woman. When we look up the meaning of "ailing", we find it refers to being in<u> poor health.</u>
  • Therefore, we can assume the rest of the sentence will keep on talking about health issues.
  • With that in mind, the best answers are "debilitation" and "lassitude" (the fourth option).
  • "Debilitation" is the process of reducing the strength of something or someone.
  • "Lassitude" refers to a state of lack of strength or energy.
