All communications, whether intentional or have no
effect. And they are composed of a series of
elements of communication. Its purpose or objective can be called under the action of informing, generating actions, creating an understanding or communicating a certain idea of communication. Non-verbal communication consists of transmitting meanings in the form of non-verbal messages. Non- linguistic signs are used. Examples of non-verbal communication include gestures, facial expressions, body expression, eye contact, dressing, haptics (communication by touch), chronemic (meaning of time in communication), and kinesthetic Body language), among others. The same oral communication contains non-verbal elements such as paralinguistic elements (non-verbal elements that accompany linguistics, for example surprise tones, interest, disinterest, fear, fatigue, innuendo, etc.) According to studies, 55% of human communication Is given by means of non-verbal facial expressions and 38% by means of paralanguage.2 This includes the same written communication in which it is possible to determine meanings in the writing style, the distribution of spaces between words and the use of emoticons for Transmit emotions. In this sense, to convey a message colors are used, such as the blue and red mark of the taps, sounds, like the siren of an ambulance, and gestures, like the wink of an eye.
Some of the purposes of non-verbal communication
include complementing and enlightening the message to reinforce or emphasize it, replace or replace, control or regulate, and even contradict. This gives a great importance to non-verbal communication because it contributes to reinforce the ideas and purposes of the sender and helps the receiver to better decode the message they receive Verbal communication or linguistic communication is one that uses words as signs. It can not be isolated from a number of factors to be effective, which includes non-verbal communication, listening skills and clarification. Human language can be defined as a system of symbols or linguistic signs, known as lexemes and grammatical rules in which symbols are manipulated. The word "language" also refers to the common properties of the same. With these signs are represented the objects and facts of reality, and uniting them through the rules of grammar complex messages are constructed, that is, the sentences, with which represent thoughts. In the case that two people speak the same language, they will recognize the signs that each one pronounces, and their meaning, in such a way that it will evoke in the mind a thought or an idea that is to be transmitted. The learning of this occurs normally and intensely during the years of human childhood. Most languages in the world use sounds and gestures as symbols that enable communication with other languages, which tend to share certain properties, although there are exceptions. There is no defined line between a language or language and a dialect. Constructed languages such as Esperanto, the programming language and several mathematical formalisms, are not necessarily restricted by the properties shared by human language. Fundamentally verbal communication is oral, using words spoken with the voice. It can also be written. In writing, sounds are transformed into letters, and words are spoken in graphic
