Which of the following statements is not true? a. nonverbal communication is linguistic. b. nonverbal communication relies on multiple channels. c. nonverbal communication is continuous. d. nonverbal communication is ambiguous.

A. Non-Verbal Communication is linguistic

Explanation: Non-Verbal Communication can never be linguistic as its name itself says "Non-Verbal" meaning no spoken communication or no use of words implying that oral language is neither an element nor a barrier in this communication. Non-Verbal Communication includes body language, facial expressions, gestures, the gap between the communicators, etc. The rest of the options are reflecting as the characteristics of Non-Verbal Communication as it is contrary to Verbal which contains only one channel and focuses on more than one aspect at one time. Unlike, Verbal Communication Non-Verbal Communication is continuous as we may stop talking but not analyzing or observing physical attributes of a person. It is a never-ending process and thus ambiguous too.

The statement that is not true is Nonverbal communication is linguistic.

Explanation:

Nonverbal communication does not have linguistic characteristics since this kind of communication is determined by different elements that include body language and facial expressions, besides as the other three points mention it is continuous since it can be reflected in every action of a person, and it can also be ambiguous depending on the social context where it happens.
