We can express our opinion not only with a words but also with gestures. Body language refers to various forms of nonverbal communication, wherein a person may reveal clues as to some unspoken intention or feeling through their physical behavior. These behaviors include facial expressions, body posture, gestures, eye movement, touch and the use of space. Body language exists in both animals and humans, but this article focuses on interpretations of human body language. It is also known as kinesiks. As for me, such nonverbal communication is an absorbing phenomenon. That’s why, I like to observe, how people display emotions with the help of gestures. Besides, I try not to make generalizations about somebody’s behaviour. Of course, you may say that it is easier said than done, but I tell the truth.

Budy language can be very informative, but if you jump to conclusions when you interptet a gesture you must to misinterpret what it means. For example: a clenched fist - shows anger, people who lean towards each other are displaying an interest in each other.
Also there are lot of other expression relates to non verbal communication. You can have butterflies in your stomach or your hart pounding when you are nervous. If you are pulling your hair you must be angry.And you can scratch your head when you are thinking.
Bear in mind
that body language varies greatly with people and especially with international
cultures, so be very careful when applying Western understanding to Eastern
non-verbal language.
