Why I picked this movie for this project I chose The Little Mermaid for the Web project because it shows the different types of communication in an easily understood manner. Also, because the use of different types of communications is used by teenagers and young adults in a different manner than adults. Teenagers use more gestures in nonverbal communication and more words to convey meanings. Go to index for Human Comm Goes to the Movies. Verbal Communication is any means of communicating using words or phrases to convey meaning.
