Way to avoid fool's abuse (4)
I believe the answer is:
jeer
'fool's abuse' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'way to avoid' is the wordplay.
'way' becomes 'R' (abbreviation for right).
'to' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'avoid' becomes 'jee' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'r' put after 'jee' is 'JEER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for jeer that I've seen before include "Taunt" , "Henry ---, Richard II's enemy, successor" , "Rude, mocking remark" , "Rudely mocking remark" , "Mock publicly" .)
