Very confusing question, for me, C is most accurate. If we have the action items written down, we can avoid misunderstandings in what needs to be done. For me its not D, because even if we all use the same terminology, we could still misunderstand who needs to perform what when.

D is the most appropriate answer. The use of common communication terminology will be understood by the team. Unlike option C, a minute of meeting even after being documented may not be understood

The problem is very tricky... Is there any guarantee that unifying communication terminology in D, known as the answer, will not cause confusion? In my opinion, it is better to record the agreement in the meeting minutes to ensure consistent agreement. What do you think? I'm confused...

Its obviously C or D. Since its a communication problem and the answer is more general I would go with D

Selected Answer: D
By using a common communication terminology, the project manager can establish a shared understanding among team members. This includes ensuring that everyone is using the same language and definitions for project activities, tasks, and requirements. This can be achieved through the development and maintenance of a project glossary or by establishing clear communication protocols.

To avoid misunderstandings and ensure that everyone has a shared understanding of activities and expectations, it's crucial to use a common communication terminology. This helps in creating clarity and alignment among team members, reducing the risk of misinterpretations that can lead to delays in the project.
