Communication is the sending of
information or news from one person to another. If human beings could not
communicate with one another, each person would have to learn everything for
himself. Although animals as well as men can communicate, so far as we know,
they can express only the simple emotions like pain, joy, fear, hunger, anger
and love. Some animals have a more advanced form of language using sounds, and
others use a wide range of sounds and face movements, but we still have much to
learn about these animal languages. Speech is the most important
means of communication between people. But it is not the only one. Nor is it the
oldest. We use facial expressions, gestures and hand movements to express our
feelings and to send signals to other people. Animals use this "body language" a
great deal. The sign language used by deaf people is an example of communication
without speech, while blind people communicate largely through touch and
hearing.
