As a saying goes, body language is the most powerful and universal language of all!
As a saying goes, body language is the most powerful and universal language of all!I can’t agree more with this view. It means we can read others clearly by catching their body languages.
Although not all cultures communicate with each other the same way, many body languages and gestures are universal. For examples, the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings and put people at ease. When feeling angry, people are likely to frown, make a fist or turn their back to others. Besides, in most cases, rolling their eyes and turning their head away shows people are not convinced of what they are hearing.
From my point of view, body languages play a significant part in our daily life. Not only can it help you to know other’s feelings, but also it contributes to make yourself easily understood. With so many cultural difference between people, it is an amazing thing that people should understand each other by their body languages. Therefore, only after we study international body languages can we avoid difficulties in today’s world of cultural crossroads.
