La comunicación verbal puede realizarse de dos formas: oral (a través de signos orales y palabras habladas); o escrita (por medio de la representación gráfica de signos). Hay múltiples formas de comunicación oral: los gritos, silbidos, llanto y risa, los cuales pueden expresar diferentes situaciones anímicas y son una de las formas más primarias de la comunicación. La forma más evolucionada de comunicación oral es el lenguaje articulado, los sonidos estructurados que dan lugar a las sílabas, palabras y oraciones con las que se comunican los seres humanos entre sí. 1, record 1, Spanish, - comunicaci%C3%B3n%20oral
