Non-verbal communication such as gestures and facial expressions can have different meanings across cultures. For example, nodding means "yes" in most places but "no" in parts of Greece, Bulgaria, and Turkey. Eye contact is important in the West but can be rude in many Asian countries and Africa. Sign language uses hand shapes, positions, and movements to communicate, but the signs differ between languages like British and American Sign Language. Morse code represents letters and numbers with dots and dashes tapped out electronically along cables for decoding.
