  2. Communication in general is the process of sending and receiving messages that enables humans to share knowledge, attitudes, and skills. Although we usually identify communication with speech, communication is composed of two dimensions: - verbal and nonverbal.

  4. BODILY SPEAKING… • According to the social anthropologist, Edward T. Hall, in a normal conversation between two persons, less than 35% of social meaning is actually transmitted by words. So at least 65% of it is conveyed through the body (non-verbal channel).
