Answer

Semantic barriers of communication refer to barriers where there is a problem in decoding the message because of factors such as difficulty in interpretation, wrong translations or wrong use of words. Some semantic barriers are:
i. Badly expressed message: There may be difficulty in expressing the information because of poor vocabulary or wrong use of words.
ii. Symbols with different meanings: Sometimes, a single word may have many different meanings. In such cases, it may be difficult for the receiver to interpret the intended meaning of the word.
iii. Faulty translations: Sometimes, it may happen that there is a language barrier between workers such that the level of proficiency of a language may be different for the two.
