I thought assault = a threat...and battery = the physical attack.
I mean "assault basically refers to situations where one person creates a fear of harm in another person."
I could get charged with assault for pulling my fist back and making it look like I'm about to punch someone, or saying something like "I'm going to take this baseball bat and crack your skull open with it"
