The art of the indian head nod

Yes or No ? That is the question.

I always considered our gesture to say yes and no universal. But in India, beyond the language borders, you can find also the body language borders. Indian people use a special gesture, they nodd their head from side to side giving a funny way to their answer.

Yes, Maybe, of course, I will see tomorow, why not, no problem, probably no? It could be one of these expression or an other.

Firstly, this head movement appears more to an uncontrollable tic than an answer. After a few days, observing their eyes, their mouth, the answer is clearer.

For european people it seems difficult to learn this movement.Between our yes and our no adding a little dance to fluidify your gesture and you should nodd like an indian person in three or four months.

So, it's time to me to practising in front of a mirror in my privacy home the indian head wiggle.
