Which of the following is not an example of thoughtful message encoding? a. using constructive criticism when evaluating a contest entry b. speaking to someone in their own language when traveling to another country c. dressing in a nice gown for a formal event d. issuing a loud, angry complaint about the meal you just had in a restaurant

d. issuing a loud, angry complaint about the meal you just had in a restaurant

Explanation:

The letter D is the only option that does not represent an example of thoughtful message encoding because it does not represent an appropriate message for the situation and where it is being issued. On the contrary, the letter D shows an inappropriate, blatant, exaggerated, and unkind message that may offend those who hear it.
