It is a natural part of communication: to clarify meaning; it is very visual to vent nervousness to maintain interest to emphasize and regulate posture – stand straight but relaxed (do not slouch or lean) Pronunciation (proper names, cognates, numbers) and presentation are important, practice beforehand! This is equally important for the key words of your presentation. It is particularly annoying for the audience to hear the same word mispronounced repeatedly The voice is important: to indicate importance, meaning to create atmosphere and to avoid sounding monotonous and putting the audience to sleep!
