When there is a language barrier, communication is completed through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, and the local people unable to make themselves understood by each other through speaking or writing have had to use this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very lively and exact and can be used internationally, spelling, however, cannot compare with them.
Body language sends ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of showing that the party is only joking. A nod means approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
