It's All in the Eyebrows
In Kenya, one way to say yes is to simply raise your eyebrows. I had forgotten that they do this. While in Sudan, some of the Kenyan staff members did this and it confused me for so long. Dennis, especially, did it a lot. I would ask him a question and wait for an answer. What I didn't realize at first was that he already answered me by raising his eyebrows. George's nephew, Baby, does this so much. At first, I experienced the same confusion as before. I would ask him a question several times thinking he wasn't answering me. Then I realized he did with his eyebrows. Now I find myself doing the same thing!
