According to some experts, a staggering 93 percent of our daily communication is non-verbal. Facial expressions are easy to decipher. One can readily detect happiness, sadness, anger. Physicians can tell a patient is doing well (or not) by looking at his/her face. Eye contact is another type of non-verbal communication, which can tell a lot about the other person. The eyes convey a range of emotions-happiness, sadness, boredom, surprise, confidence ..... even emotional interest. Staring at someone's forehead may intimidate the recipient, staring at the mouth is sometimes interpretated as a sign of emotional interest. In fact staring into someone's eyes is a sign of lying, and so is looking away. In certain cultures, lack of eye contact is taken as a sign of respect. If body language is to be defined, it is a combination of facial expression, gestures, eye contact, body movements and posture and voice. Frequent blinking is a sign of the person feeling distressed or uncomfortable. If the pupils are dilated, it often indicates interest, even emotional interest. The lips also reflect our body language, and lip biting indicates worry and/or anxiety; tightening of the lips may be an indication of disapproval. Slightly turned-up lips indicate happiness and slightly turned-down lips indicate sadness. |

उत्तर
Role of Non-Verbal Communication
An essential component of daily communication is nonverbal communication. The eyes and facial expressions may indicate a variety of emotions, such as happiness, sadness, etc. Staring into someone's eye or glancing away is a symptom of lying. Staring at someone's forehead is perceived as frightening. Staring at the lips is perceived as emotionally interesting. Few cultures see avoiding eye contact as polite. Facial expression, gestures, eye contact, bodily movements, posture, and voice all contribute to body language. Blinking often, the uncomfortable person shows attention through dilated pupils. Different emotions including worry, displeasure, delight, and grief are indicated by the biting, tightness, small turning up, and turning down of the lips.
