Speech is necessary for learning, interacting with others and for people to develop. Speech begins at an early age and it develops as a person ages.
There are different elements that play a role in speech. The words someone uses, how fast or slow they speak, tone of voice and the brevity of speech affect how someone relays a message or idea. Non-verbal actions also affect speech and these include eye contact, hand gestures, facial expression and overall disposition. For example, someone not making eye contact and standing rigid may appear shy or dishonest while someone making eye contact and sitting in a relaxed fashion may seem more open and honest.
