Which behaviour is most likely to reduce misunderstanding?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Asking for clarification after the message is complete
Asking a polite clarification question after the speaker finishes gives the listener a chance to resolve doubt before acting. It also shows that the message was taken seriously. Guessing, answering without listening, or using harsh words can increase misunderstanding and conflict instead of checking the intended meaning.
