There are four main types of communication. Verbal communication uses spoken words — talking, phone calls, telling a story, a speech in assembly. Non-verbal communication uses no words — a smile, a nod, a shrug, a wave. Written communication uses words on paper or a screen — a letter to Nani, a note in the diary, an email. Visual communication uses pictures — a map, a bar chart, a traffic light, a no-entry symbol. Good communicators pick the right type for the job, and often mix them.
