expressions of emotion
Expressions of emotion are the ways people communicate their feelings, often through facial gestures, body language, tone of voice, and gestures. These expressions help others understand how someone is feeling, whether it’s happiness, sadness, anger, or surprise. They are shaped by social, cultural, and individual factors and can be automatic or deliberate. Recognizing emotional expressions allows for better social interactions and empathy, fostering understanding and connection. While universally recognizable emotions exist, specific expressions and their intensity can vary across different cultures and situations.
