Answer:

Mannerisms, such as playing with your car keys, fidgeting, rocking and pacing can communicate nervousness.

Step-by-step explanation:

People communicate not only by spoken or written language, but also by body language. This is, movements, gestures, body positions that reveal someoneĀ“s self-esteem and the like. This is observed by interviewers, directors, human resource personnel to "read between the lines" and to be able to better understand the attitude, personality and intentions of the speaker.
