Tears (眼泪) in your eyes tell others that you are sad. the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head and people know you are saying "No". You nod and people know you are saying "Yes".

Have you ever thought that there are a lot of other signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time?
