A method of communicating with a nonverbal communicator by using a first article indicating an first answer, a second article indicating a second answer, and a guide containing a plurality of questions that elicit either the first or the second answer. The method comprises the steps of: (a) supporting the first and second articles apart from each other in front of the nonverbal communicator, such that the first and second answer choices are easily discernable and are selectable by the nonverbal communicator by a discriminating action in relation to the first or second article; (b) asking the nonverbal communicator at least one question from the portable guide; and (c) receiving from the nonverbal communicator either the first or second answer to the question, by perceiving a discriminating action relative to the first or second article made by the nonverbal communicator.
