Semantics (differences in meanings of words or phrases), connotation (cultural associations and emotions attached to words), tone difference (variations in tone, volume and speed of speech), and difference in tolerance for conflict (varying levels of comfort with confrontation or disagreement) are the four specific barriers to cross-cultural communication. Kinesics (body language and movements) and proxemics (use of personal space) are also important factors, but they are not listed as options in the question.
