Chapter 6: Non-Verbal Communication



                     What is non-verbal communication? Nonverbal communication is communication without words including gestures, touch, raising your voice, even to the clothes you wear, how you smell, etc...
Non-verbal communication conveys more meaning than verbal communication.


1. Integrating Non-Verbal and Verbal Messages

            (i) Accent
                When someone warn you something very serious, that person will raise he/she voice to you. I
               think they will raise their voice to someone when they are getting mad in some situation. Such as,
               teacher and student.

            (ii) Complement
                 When frown you head when recounting someone's deceit  (to suggest your dispproval).
       
            (iii) Contradict
                   Sometimes, I thinks everyone may deliberately contradict your verbal messages with nonverbal                      movements.

             (iv) Regulate
                   I always purse my lips (almost everytimes) to indicate that I want to speak when I chat with                          family, friends and etc...
                       
             (v) Repeat
                  "What we want to eat today?", this question is totally happen after class. We just repeat asking                      this question many times approximately 30 minutes and hand gestures.

              (vi) Substitute
                    I believe we use nonverbal communication to substitute or take the place of verbal messages.
                    For example, "Understand ?", the lecturer asked, you can nod your head to substitute that you                       clear about the lecturer thought.
