What is non-verbal communication? Does it aid or hinder verbal communication?
Nonverbal communication is body language and it is tone of voice, inflection, and word choice. Nonverbal communication can aid and can hinder verbal communication. For example, if you’re saying that you’d LOVE to go out with someone, but your arms are crossed and you’re avoiding eye contact and your voice has a sarcastic edge to it you could be seen as saying one thing but meaning something totally different. When communicating with people it is so important not only to notice what they say, but also to notice what they do during the conversation.
