Simplified meaning
People often understand things better by watching what's happening, rather than just hearing words. For example, if a friend tells you they are fine, but they look sad and are not smiling, you can tell something is wrong. Your eyes are picking up information that your ears can't. In a classroom, students understand a lesson more clearly when the teacher uses pictures or gestures. This shows that seeing can give a fuller picture of what is being communicated. In your daily life, pay attention to both what people say and how they look or act. This helps to truly understand them.
