Answer:

Language.

Explanation:

The language barrier is the impediment of a set of parties in a conversation to come to an understading in clarity due to the parties' inability to communicate in a common language or dialect.

Since José provides Paul with instructions in Spanish (a language he barely speaks), Paul fails to fully understand a crucial message in José's speech. This is an example of a language barrier.
