The information file she has received indicates that Blerina has a sister and so Ms. Carstairs is surprised when Blerina shakes her head from side to side in answer to the question, "Do you have any sisters or brothers?" Later Ms. Carstairs discovers that side-to-side head shaking in Albania means, Yes, while up and-down head shaking means, No  exactly the opposite of what she understands them to mean.

A) communication blocks.      B) limited English proficiencies.
C) cultural nonverbal cues.      D) cultural verbal cues.
