During communication, a person makes gestures that are little understood by himself, which express his thoughts. The interlocutor perceives this gesture, but most often does not subject it to analysis. However, with the help of facial expressions and gestures, even more information is transmitted than with the help of words. For more effective communication, it is worth learning to "read" unspoken thoughts.
