Nonverbal communication, or body language, is used everywhere in the world, because it is a very powerful means of communication, and it communicates much more then spoken words.
One example of nonverbal communication is what occurs between parents and child, that parents smile at their child. They communicate love, acceptance, and reassurance, so the child feels comfortable and safe. The smile signifies approval, for he child is happy and well adjusted.
Another example of nonverbal communication is the image a person shows in public. A woman is walking alone on an unfamiliar and possibly dangerous street, for she wants to appear confident. She walks quickly;as a result, she may be tired. She walks with her shoulders straight and her head held high; also, her eyes are focused straight ahead. Someone is looking at her, but she returns the glance without hesitation. In contrast, a nervous woman appears afraid, so she walks slowly with her shoulders and eyes down.
Indeed, body language can express more than spoken language; for instance, merely by raising an eyebrow, clenching a jaw, or softening the eyes, a person can express disapproval, anger ,or love, and it is very strong method of communication.
