Sensory deprivation and disability – visual impairment may reduce a person’s ability to see faces or read written signs and leaflets. Hearing impairment may limit conversation. Conditions such as cerebral palsy, stroke, cleft palate, Down’s syndrome and autism tend to limit a person’s ability to communicate verbally and non-verbally; difficulties interpreting non-verbal communication are typical of autism.

Many people, who are in some form visually impaired, lose the ability of seeing facial expressions, and gestures, which are important in spoken communication. 93% of communication is through body language, gestures and expressions and the other 7% is through spoken. Many of the visually impaired find it difficult to distinguish if someone is addressing them or someone else, or if the person speaking has wandered off, which of course is a negative impact on that person. Written communication is also difficult for a person with sight loss. This can be due to too small text, colour of the text, Shiny paper, centring and underlining of text.
Unit 28: Introductory Awareness of Autistic Spectrum Conditions Unit code: LD 210 Unit ref number: M/601/5316 QCF Level: 2 Credit Value: 2 1. Understand the area's in which individuals with an autistic spectrum condition characteristically have difficulties. 1.1 Describe the types of difficulty that individuals with an autistic spectrum condition may have with language and other ways of communicating with others. People with autism are affected in a variety of ways and to differing degrees. However, they all have difficulties with using language, being unable to talk and express their selves effectively and often having problems in processing and understanding the language and communication of others.
Visual impairments can also be difficult in these situations and may affect a person’s ability to read body language, facial expressions and see gestures. Persons who have dual sensory loss will find it extremely difficult and be frustrated during day to day tasks. It can lead to loss of interests in activities and in some case may cause a person to have little or no contact with the world around them. It can have serious effects if a person misinterprets what they are being spoken to about by their family, friends and possibly medical professionals. Persons with hearing impairments would need to focus on reading lips and body language to uphold conversations just as people with visual impairments would rely on their hearing to be able to function effectively within society.
Our value and credibility drop tremendously. Just as bad, while our wardrobe and looks may be in fashion, our vocabulary, the way and manner we speak, may simply be out of date. People must begin to realize the importance of word choice when talking to an individual or a group of people. Speech is an important thing to keep in mind when speaking with other people.

When writers are analyzing opposing positions, they need to supply a great deal of information, precisely and accurately. They add much of this information in phrases that interrupt the flow of a sentence. The problem, forgetting to set off an interrupting phrase with commas can make sentences difficult to read or unclear. These tools can be helpful, but do not rely on them exclusively to catch errors in your text: spelling checkers cannot catch misspelling that is themselves words, such as to for too. Grammar checkers miss some problems; something’s give faulty advice for fixing problems, and can flag correct items as wrong.
