Cross-cultural Communication In the book's Preface, Tannen states: "all communication is more or less cross-cultural." (Tannen) What does she mean by this statement?

In the communication process, culture differences are an issue during encoding and decoding. The challenge for the sender is to develop a message in forms that can be decoded successfully by the receiver without losing or misunderstanding the content and meaning of the message.
