Understanding People

Humans are the capable of trying to understand other people. We all live in communities, like towns villages and cities. . Getting along with your neighbors is important. Understanding people helps in creating empathy, and that helps you to get along with other people.

By understanding what people say, you can quickly figure out a person’s mood, emotions, tiredness, well being, or  illness. By showing understanding to another person, you may be able to influence them into  doing favors or providing help.

By learning English, you will be able to easily recognize a person’s emotional state by their expressions, looks, and mannerisms. The English language is filled with adjectives and descriptions of emotional states that you can read about. Sometimes you may be able to  easily recognize a person’s emotional state.

Other times you may have to ask them about their situation. Communication and understanding another person play a big part in getting along with other people. Just by asking a person’s point of view, and how it makes them feel, opens the door to understanding.

 

How English Can help

In learning English, you can translate in your mind what the person is saying, then think about if it makes sense. In that way, they would know that you are on their side and are considering their point of view.

You could then ask yourself why the person would say their words, what was their intention, and how and what was their tone towards you. You can them judge how much the speaker appreciated you for listening.

At the same time, when other people misunderstand you, it can lead to a stressful incident.

Good communication will let you know what is expected of you. Also it will tell you if the person you are speaking with  is receiving the correct information from you and there are no mistakes.

Understanding others is the key to a happy life, and how well we deal with people naturally depends on our upbringing, and how our parents raised us.
