How does my culture impact in communicate, and the influence my verbal and non-verbal behaviors

In the Caribbean we have alot of  culture differences in which we communicate. I'm a Dominican by birth and Dominica is home to a wide range of people. Although it was historically occupied by several native tribes, the Arawak Kalinago Caribs tribes, we speak creole (type of french language), my culture impact greatly in my communicate because i communicate with the elderly good cause they better understand what you bring a cross in creole better than English, and secondly because of our culture we as Dominica communicate using creole without make other culture understand what we are saying.
At the same time It affects a lot, in the way we speak as far as "slang" some words may have different meaning for different cultures. Some of the things we do may also have different meanings. So we may offend somebody from a different culture by saying something that is not offensive to us.
My culture influences my verbal and nonverbal behaviors accurately read other people, including the emotions they’re feeling and the unspoken messages they’re sending. Create trust and transparency in relationships by sending nonverbal signals that match up with your words. Respond with nonverbal cues that show others that you understand, notice, and care.
