In
communication we need ‘something’ to communicate with others. Usually we use a language to do
it, like Madurese, Bahasa, or English. Actually there are two kinds of communication;
verbal and non-verbal communication.
When use verbal communication we use words to
communicate. Verbal its mean oral or spoken, if we look up the dictionary. So
verbal communication is how to communicate someone with language that come out
from our mouth.
In Bali, when me my friends have a tour, we often use
this communication, verbal
communication. Such as,
when there is foreigner tourist, we try to speak with them. We use English to
communicate our purpose like when we want to take picture with them or want to
make new acquaintances. We choose English for conversation because of English
is International language.
We met many foreigner tourists when we arrived in
Tanah Lot. I and 5 other my friends neared one of foreigner tourist that just
already arrived there. She neared sea by him self. We neared her, while introducing
our self. Obvious, she came from America, her name is Kania. We talk many things with her, and she’s kind
person. She answered with calm. We thanked god, our English was clearly that
time.
On the other side in the same place; Tanah Lot, 2 of
my friends introducing their self to Japanese people my friends-language was
very good. They like watching Anime, Japanese cartoon-film. So they can speak
Japanese, although sometimes they use English. They acquainted with Tatomoe and
Mayuke. Kirei, kirei desu, I think! What a beautiful name.
Previously, I also met many foreigner tourist in Kuta
Beach, although Tanah Lot we met more foreigner. We arrived in Kuta Beach when
sun going to set. What a beautiful moment and great light there. The light was
golden.
Unconsciously, my eyes directed and rivet on a
little-pretty child that played wave in front of us. She wore blue clothing. I
told my friends about that child. Suddenly my friend beside me call out her,
“Adek, sini!” at then me and my friends clap her arm,
“She’s not Indonesian people you know,” then we
laughed together.
We were conscious that she’s foreigner tourist. To be certain,
that little child not turned her head to us. Of course because she did
not understand, and there
are many people there, so she didn’t hear us. Then, because of our strong
desire to know and take picture with her (especially me :D) . We neared to her.
After we stood neared the little child we make a signal that we want to take
picture with her. We modeled our fingers like push the button on camera.
Surprise! She nodding her head, then we take picture together. We were very
happy that moment although we can take picture use non-verbal communication, because we were very nervous.
