Verbal and Non-Verbal

For my first time blogging, I want to share with you all about my study. I always confused the meaning of verbal and the non-verbal word. When referred to the verbal word, there are some people imagined this verbal communication refers to a conversation while non-verbal communication is the opposite of that, doesn't use speech. In other languages are spoken and not spoken. However, this assumption is wrong because the true meaning of verbal communication is communication that involves the word, while non-verbal communication is not using the word. Verbal communication includes conversation and writing. An example would be like giving a speech. Speech becomes verbal communication because we using the words of the particular language. The same thing happens with writing. Writing is done by using the words with selected language. Non-verbal communication will be as signal and image. When we look at the red color on traffic light, we will stop the vehicle as soon as possible because we understand the meaning of the color red is stop. Similarly, the images shown. We will act in accordance with our understanding that does not involve any word in the image. That's all for today. Hopefully I can see you in my next post.
