Effectively, non-verbal communication isn't the greatest becasue it leaves so much to interpretation and understanding by/of the receiver. For ex, scowling (as the first poster wrote), might be meant to suggest a displeasure or misunderstandnig, but could be perceived by the other person as anger. Some time later, when discussed, you might hear, "No, that's not what I meant", or, "No, I wasn't angry. I just..... (whatever)". Even in sign language, signs are modofoed by facial expressions and body language in order to better relate/define/clarify meanings of the signs.

If you mean what is an example of non verbal communication, scowling at someone when you are displeased with them is non verbal communication.
Maintaining eye contact during conversations to show interest and engagement is a highly effective use of nonverbal communication. Additionally, using open body language such as facing the person, nodding, and leaning in can convey attentiveness and understanding without saying a word.
The difference between non-verbal and verbal communication is you use your body to communicate things, however, with verbal communication you just use your voice to communicate things to other people.
Knowing the material, natural facial expressions, and facing the audience.
forms of communication verbal-use words to communicate non-verbal-use sign language
written communication
Non verbal communication is often employed with the use of facial gestures or hand gestures, and they can nicely compliment verbal communication by adding to the other persons understanding of what is being conveyed.
Verbal communication uses words. Non-verbal communication are the ways we communicate without words, such as smiling, gesturing, and touching. Things like e-mail and SMS are considered verbal communication, because they use words, even though the words are written rather than spoken. This question and answer is therefore a form of verbal communication.
Non-verbal communication can help run a meeting if everyone understands sign language. It's not beneficial to use non-verbal language at times because it can cause confusion.
Verbal communication is communication that uses words, either written or spoken. This is in contrast to non-verbal communication, such as body language. "Verbal" is sometimes used colloquially in the sense of "spoken," but it is better to use "oral" in that context, to avoid ambiguity.
Body Language and Gestures
Non verbal communication includes gesture; body language or posture; facial expression and eye contact. Advantages of non verbal communication are, that you can use it, when there is no use of verbal communication. Some times when you don't want to tell something to everyone, you can use nonverbal communication to tell something only to the person you want. Eye contact is very important in every type of communication, and also very helpful in understanding between two people. Disadvantages: -- somebody cannot understand your expression or posture,that you are trying to tell and they misunderstood. And which is not good sometime. -- Can't be avoided when others are near you.
Verbal- Talking, or reading written words. Non verbal- any other method of getting your point across that does not involve talking, or words. Such as shaking your head to mean no, or nodding to mean yes. If someone asks me "where is my car" that's verbal. If I point to their car, that's non-verbal.
Standing up or laying down. :P ___ I believe you may be referring to verbal and non-verbal communication, meaning what is said by actual words (verbal) vs. what is said by anything else, including your body, face, inflection, tone, meter, rythm, speaking style, presentation, haptics, volume, and more (non-verbal).
