Talk Language [Paperback]

Allan Garner (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 17, 2002

Sometimes people are so busy communicating they don't listen to each other. TALK LANGUAGE tells you how to understand what people are really saying, and why. Words represent only a small part of the information transmitted in conversation; just as important are circumstances and body language. TALK LANGUAGE shows how to decode a wide range of everyday signals, so you can get the message or intentions a speaker is really conveying - whether intentionally or not. It gives many examples of every day conversational phrases and what they really mean. TALK LANGUAGE will help you to express yourself clearly and concisely - and to interpret others' intentions if they do not reveal them. Its message can be applied to almost every facet of daily life.
