What does 'decode' refer to in communication?

Ignoring the message
Preparing a reply without understanding
Translating a message into an idea
Sending a meaningless message

The correct answer is: Translating a message into an idea

Decoding in communication refers to the process of translating a message into an idea or understanding its meaning. This involves interpreting the message received and assigning meaning to it based on one's own perception and understanding. It is essential for effective communication as it allows the receiver to comprehend the message accurately. In contrast, the other options are incorrect because they do not capture the essence of decoding in communication.
