C. Paralanguage, the way we say something rather than what we say, is another nonverbal code. Paralanguage is usually divided into three parts, each of which convey meaning. Vocal qualities are characteristics of the voice like pitch. Vocal segregates are pauses, fillers, and other hesitation phenomena. Although the judgments we make on the basis of voice are not necessarily accurate, we think they are.
Silence is an overlooked aspect of paralanguage that carries meaning.
D. Time, or chronemics, and space, or proxemics, also convey messages. The values we attach to and the way we use time provide useful information about us. People have different psychological orientations to the present and the future. People are also controlled by biological clocks. Cultures also differ in the meanings they attach to time.
