 IV)  Components of oral communication:

 1. Verbal communication:

 It's a kind of speech wherein the message is transmitted through the spoken words. the sender gives words to his opinion, idea, thought, feeling and expresses them in the form of conversations, discussion, speeches and conversations. Even if verbal communication can be spontaneous, it will be better to plan and organize thoughts before turning them into words. 

 2. Non-Verbal Communication:

 You communicate with far more than words: once we interact with someone, our body has a language of its own. The way you sit, the gestures you make, the way you talk, what proportion eye contact we make all of those are non-verbal ways of communicating that impact the messages your words are sending. 

Your verbal messaging is communicated via the words that you use. The verbal message is of course a crucial a part of your communication, but the way you communicate nonverbally is equally, and sometimes more, important. 

Nonverbal communication includes the following: 

 - Tone of voice 

 - Rate and volume of speech 

 - How we articulate our words 

 - Stress placed on words and rhythm, intonation

 - countenance 

 - the quantity of eye contact we make 

 - Gestures/touch 

 - visual communication and posturing 

Research shows that once you communicate feelings and attitudes, only a little percentage of your overall message comes from the words you use. 

 

 - 55 per cent of your message comes from visual communication (especially from movements of the tiny 

 muscles round the eye which may convey shock, disbelief, doubt or disgust) 

 - 38 per cent of your message comes from tone of voice 

 - At latest 7 per cent of your message is conveyed by the words we use (Mehrabian, 2007) 

It’s not what you say, but how you say it that often matters most, especially when you communicate feelings and attitudes. Tone of voice alone can convey anger, affection, indifference, sarcasm, disappointment, or frustration.

Often your non-verbal and messages are consistent, but they can sometimes be incompatible If someone’s words conflict with their tone of voice or / and non-verbal behaviors, you frequently mistrust the words and have a tendency to believe the non-verbal clues instead. It’s not very convincing for instance , when someone tells you they’re not angry at you, but they avoid eye contact.
