Is Xerox a verb?

Xerox is not a verb and the Xerox Corporation actively discourages its use in that way. Xerox is a trade mark and a shortened form of the company name, Xerox Corporation. Its use as a generic term for all copying machines is part of a general process whereby proper names are transformed into common nouns, sometimes losing their capital letters in the process. This has been going on for a long time (e.g. "shylock"), and is often applied to modern era trademarks. Similar cases are "coke" and "kleenex," both of which are beginning to be found in formal prose. Some people also use 'xerox' informally in place of the verb "to copy" or "to photocopy." This is an example of a linguistic process sometimes called "zero derivation," whereby one part of speech is converted into another without some kind of ending. English has done this sort of thing frequently in the past few centuries--e.g. "watch" or "kill" in some meanings. A more recent example of this applied to a trademark is "google." When such usages fill a gap, they are likely to become acceptable in formal prose at some point.

What is the purpose of nonverbal communication?

* It heightens the other four senses: sight, smell, taste and touch. For example if a man loves the woman he is with he will enjoy just staring at her beauty (sight); he may mention her hair or her entire body smells wonderful and may comment on it (smell); when love-making some lovers will lick their partners skin in different areas of the body (taste) and of course touch explains it in it's entirety. On the other end of the scale by not talking at all in any social arena one can learn more by listening instead of constantly prattling. This is called learning which is knowledge.

Meaning of photocopy notorised?

The phrase "photocopy notarized" has no meaning. Presumably the question is seeking the meaning of the two words "photocopy" and "notarized." When a document is a photocopy, is is a copy of another document that has been made by using one of the common copying machines made by Xerox, Samsung, Sharp, IBM and others. When a document is notarized, the formal signature on the document is confirmed by a person called a notary, who confirms the identity of the person signing, marks the document to indicate that (Notary's Seal), and maintains a notebook record of all such activity. This is the equivalent of having a witness to the signing sign as a witness, only more formal and official.
