Be honest with the person and say, ``I am having some difficulty communicating with (understanding you) (or) I don't feel like you understand me. I'd like you to work with me to make sure that we can understand one another. You're in for a rude awakening when your lack of communication starts effecting your life. Tell me when something is wrong. Tell me if you don't know something. Tell me if something is confusing. Heck tell me if something is rude or you don't like something, if you find basic communication difficult. Don't even bother.
