Summary

Q1) CHARACTERISTICS OF EFFECTIVE WRITTEN COMMUNICATION
You don't need fancy language to make your point in writing. Effective writing uses simple, common words and simple grammatical structures. It uses concrete words rather than abstract ones.
Effective written communication is clear in its message. The clearer your message, the easier it gets for the receiver to decode it according to your original intent. Clear communications build on exact terminology and concrete words, to reduce ambiguities and confusion in the communication process.
Effective written communication takes into consideration the receiver’s background and points of view. If your message hits a nerve or sounds as disrespectful, the emotional reaction of the receiver might affect the perception of your message.
