Body language is used by people for sending messages to one another. It is very useful because it can help you make yourself easily understood.When you are talking with others,you are not just using words, but also using expressions and gestures.For example, waving one's hand is to say "Good-bye." A smile and handshake show welcome, and clapping hands means congratulations. Nodding the head means agreement, but shaking the head means disagreement.The gestures are accepted both by Chinese and foreigners as having the same meanings.
身勢語是用來幫人們傳遞信息的,身勢語非常有用,因為它可以使對方很容易地明白你自己的意思。我們同別人談話時,并不僅限于用言語來表達,我們還用表情和身體的動作來向對方表達要傳遞的信息。例如:揮手表示“再見”,微笑和握手表示歡迎,拍手表示祝賀,點頭表示同意,搖頭表示不同意。這些手勢對說漢語的人和說英語的人來說,都具有相同的意思。
