  Vocabulary. convey, gaze, volume, wink 1, compliment, norms.
  The way you look at someone conveys important cultural messages.
  Without you even knowing it, your gaze speaks volumes.
  The eyes are the window of the soul, according to the old saying.
  Staring is acceptable in some cultures, but not in others.
  A wink can mean a compliment or an insult depending on the culture.
  A direct gaze can be a sign of honesty or an indication of disrespect and rudeness according to the culture that surrounds the gazer.
  The way of a person gazes thus expresses a strong message, but this message can be easily misunderstood if cultural norms are not shared.
