contents In forthcoming AI-assisted 6G networks, integrating semantic, pragmatic, and goal-oriented communication strategies becomes imperative. This integration will enable sensing, transmission, and processing of exclusively pertinent task data, ensuring conveyed information possesses understandable, pragmatic semantic significance, aligning with destination needs and goals. Without doubt, no communication is error free. Within this context, besides errors stemming from typical wireless communication dynamics, potential distortions between transmitter-intended and receiver-interpreted meanings can emerge due to limitations in semantic processing capabilities, as well as language and knowledge representation disparities between transmitters and receivers. The main contribution of this paper is two-fold. First, it proposes and details a novel mathematical modeling of errors stemming from language mismatches at both semantic and effectiveness levels. Second, it provides a novel algorithmic solution to counteract these types of errors which leverages optimal transport theory. Our numerical results show the potential of the proposed mechanism to compensate for language mismatches, thereby enhancing the attainability of reliable communication under noisy communication environments.
