You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

In sociology, a '''dyad''' is a group of two people, the smallest possible social group. As an adjective, "dyadic" describes their interaction.<ref name=Macionis>Macionis, John J., and Linda Marie Gerber. Sociology. 7th ed. Toronto: Pearson Prentice Hall, 2011. 153-54. Print.</ref>
The pair of individuals in a dyad can be linked via romantic interest, family relation, interests, work, partners in crime, and so on. The relation can be based on equality, but may be based on an asymmetrical or hierarchical relationship (master–servant).
The strength of the relationship is evaluated on the basis of time the individuals spend together, as well as on the emotional intensity of their relationship. The term dyad is ((etymology|grc|''((wikt-lang|grc|δυάς))'' (((grc-transl|δυάς)))|pair)).

A dyad can be unstable because both persons must cooperate to make it work. If one of the two fails to complete their duties, the group would fall apart. Because of the significance of [[marriage]]s in society, their stability is very important. For this reason marital dyads are often enforced through legal, economic, and religious laws.<ref name=Macionis />

Dyadic [[friendship]]s refer to the most immediate and concrete level of peer [[Social interaction|interaction]], which is expanded to include new forms of relationships in adolescence – most notably, romantic and sexual relationships. Already [[Ferdinand Tönnies]] treated it as a special pattern of ''[[Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft|gemeinschaft]]'', 1887, as ''community of spirit''.

The term can also be used to describe two groups or two countries.<ref>((cite journal |last1=Owsiak |first1=Andrew P. |last2=Vasquez |first2=John A. |title=Peaceful dyads: A territorial perspective |journal=International Interactions |date=2021 |volume=47 |issue=6 |page=1040-1068 |doi=10.1080/03050629.2021.1962859|s2cid=239103213 ))</ref>

== Meaning ==
Dyad means two things of similar kind or nature or group and dyadic communication means the inter-relationship between the two. In practice, this relationship refers to dialogic relations or face-to-face verbal communication between two people involving their mutual ideas, thought, behavior, ideals, liking, disliking, and the queries and answers concerning life and living in nature. A sudden communication between two strangers in the street and not continued afterwards or not having lasting aftereffect on each other can not be termed as dyadic communication. Examples of dyadic communication occur between [[Jesus]] and [[Saint Peter|Peter]], [[the Buddha]] and [[Ananda]], or between [[Socrates]] and [[Plato]], where dialog is not only outward, superficial, or mechanical, but instead brings the two people into a sphere where each person influences the other.

A lasting communication of ideas between two people for long duration of time or of any intensive duration of deeper impact may be called dyadic communication.
