Several aspects vary across cultures,such as use of color,time,and body language.Chromatics is communication through the use of color.Colors of clothing,products,packaging,or gifts send intended or unintended messages when people communicate cross-culturally.Chronemics reflects the use of time in a culture.Some cultures are monochronic,meaning that things are done linearly,or one activity at a time.Others are polychronic,meaning that people tend to do several things at the same time.Also posture,gestures,eye contact,facial expression,touching,voice pitch and volume and speaking rates differ across cultures.
