Non-Verbal communication-Signs and Symbols

SYMBOLIC COMMUNICATION

Symbols are graphical representations that have a specific meaning. Symbols are widely used to replace lengthy sentences. Examples of symbolic communication include speech, sign language, writing (print or braille), picture communication systems, and tactile communication systems. Standardized symbols are universal in nature and followed by the people. For example- a skull at the intersecting angle of two bones means ‘danger’. Traffic symbols can be seen at the roadside which are helpful for the passengers/drivers.
