Top 9 Giveaway - Body Language Gestures and Signals of a Liar


1 The Visual Expression Giveaway

2 The Doubtful Speech Giveaway

3 The Mouth Covering Giveaway
When a person is lying, he or she will normally cover the mouth with the hand. This gesture is actually triggered by the subconscious mind instructing itself to suppress the deceitful and untruthful words that are being said. There will be times when a closed fist or only several fingers that are placed over the mouth, but its meaning remains very much the same.
On the contrary, let's say should you see someone else doing this while you are the one talking, it will mean that the other person is having doubt and finding it difficult to believe in you.

4 The Nose Touching Giveaway
As the nose is very close to the mouth, rubbing, stroking or scratching of that area is also a common gesture performed by someone who is not telling the truth. Though occasionally there are times when it might just be an actual physical itch at the area that needs to be satisfied by scratching or rubbing.

However, there is a slight difference between a genuine scratching to relieve an itch and a doubtful nose rubbing. A real and actual itching feeling will result in a more obvious rubbing motion, while the self-doubting or deceitful rub will normally be just a light touch or stroke.
Similar to the mouth covering gesture, it can both be used by a person who is trying to conceal his or her own deception, and a person who is suspicious of what is being said by the other party.
