==== Informative (Passive Gestures) ====
Informative gestures are passive gestures that provide information about the speaker as a person and not about what the speaker is trying to communicate.Some movements are not purely considered gestures, however a person could perform these adapters in such way like scratching, adjusting clothing, and tapping.'''<ref>
These gestures can occur during speech, but they may also occur independently of communication, as they are not a part of active communication. While informative gestures may communicate information about the person speaking (e.g. itchy, uncomfortable, etc.), this communication is not engaged with any language being produced by the person gesturing.<ref name=":12" />
