i find verbal communication easier to understand, personally.

<overheard near a pool>

"look at this guy, he seems to be drowning!!!"

"no way, if he were, he'd be crying for help rather than humming the
gilligan tune, don't you think?  stop being so silly."

"well, you gotta admit i guess he has to be pretty skilled for doing so
even after 5 minutes underwater."

"i don't understand you, paul."

"la la la la la mmmmmmm mmm la la la la"

"ohh, that, hrm, yeah, i bet he does, eh."
