Description
Summary:In this brief monologue, David is recounting some news to his wife: he has been appointed to an administrative position in his organisation. His verbals are not entirely explicit about his feelings regarding this development, but his non-verbals speak loudly. What is his overall message? What specific non-verbals can you name that support your claim? The key indicators here of David's sour reception to this development are in the non-verbals. Notice how the non-verbals can give highly particular meaning to words spoken, including turning superficially positive phrases into bitter irony and sarcasm.
