Abstract
The following survey of the so-called communication process does not aim at a complete treatment of the complicated problem of transferring messages in general, or linguistic messages in particular. The mathematical theory of communication has been explained in numerous handbooks to which we can refer. The purpose of this chapter is simply to give a general theoretical description of the communication process seen from a linguistic point of view and without any mathematical demonstrations.
