Non-verbal Communication


If you want to know and to understand people better, you should learn the language gestures of non-verbal communication. It is well-known fact that non-verbal communication give for as 60-80% information and verbal only 20-40%. Before people learn to speak they communicate by gestures. When we are talking about something we always use the same gestures that help for us to explain our ideas and thinks more clearly. Very rarely we can control our non-verbal movements. That is the way we can trust them more than verbal communication. For instance, if people do not tell the truth, there are some gestures such as pupils are expanded in 4th times, color on the cheeks, the speeded up blinking, hiding hands in the pockets or somewhere else that you cannot see them and they do not locking in your eyes. If people's hands lay behind their head, it means that their shove their power on the rest people. They think that they are on the top and better in something, but the other ther people do not like this gesture. It depends how often and how long people look at your eyes, we can understand, what the relationship between you is. Person rarely looks at your eyes if he or she does not like you. On another hand, if person often looks at your eyes it means he or she has a positive attitude to you.
We should not forget that we cannot look only for one separate sight to get some extra information, because the same sight can have different meaning. For example, side sight if it support smile it means interest to you, if it is accompanied by the eyebrows lowered downwards or the frowned forehead, it means the suspicious or critical attitude.
In conclusion, to know and to understand the sights of non-verbal communication is the one way to understand people better without words.
