Tone Of Voice Due To The Fact
1,897 wordsAt a family home, in the living room, immediately following dinner, is where I begin my observations. I have chosen to observe teenagers communicating. I chose this as my topic of observation because I believe that it will be very interesting to see teenagers converse and use slang and body language, or nonverbal communication.
