Understanding Sublantics
Sublantics is a term that refers to a style of communication that involves subtly conveying messages or information through indirect or hidden means. It is often used in situations where expressing thoughts or ideas directly may not be appropriate or possible.
Examples of Sublantics
- Using metaphorical language to communicate feelings or emotions
- Sending subtle hints or signals to convey a message
- Using non-verbal cues such as body language or facial expressions to express thoughts
Case Studies
One common example of sublantics is when someone uses sarcasm to express their true feelings without saying it directly. For instance, saying “Oh, great, another meeting” may actually mean that the person is not excited about the upcoming meeting.
Statistics on Sublantics
According to a study conducted by the University of California, over 60% of communication is non-verbal. This includes using sublantics to convey messages without explicitly stating them.
