What does asking for clarification from the speaker to ensure understanding signify?

  1. Interrogating

  2. Clarifying

  3. Assuming

  4. Asking

The correct answer is: Clarifying

Asking for clarification from the speaker to ensure understanding is a sign of active listening and shows that the listener is engaged and seeking further understanding. Option A, interrogating, implies an aggressive or confrontational approach to seeking clarification, which is not ideal for effective communication. Option C, assuming, suggests that the listener already knows and understands the speaker's message, which undermines the purpose of seeking clarification. Option D, asking, is a more general term and does not specifically indicate the intention to ensure understanding. B, clarifying, is the best answer as it accurately represents the purpose of asking for clarification in communication.
