communication
Sharing thoughts verbally
Communication is used to describe the act of conveying information (good communication is vital for successful relationships) or an instance or result of it (have you received any communications from Warsaw?) It can also refer to vehicles for conveying information: Radio, television, telephone, and the Internet are forms of mass communication.
There is also a technical meaning of “physical connection”: A secret passageway provided communication between the isolated buildings.
