Answer:

"act of making movements with the body to emphasize ideas"

Explanation:

The word "gesticulation" means using the body to express movements with all members and physiognomic expressions to emphasize the ideas and concepts that are being spoken.

This word has as its root the word "gestus" which refers to body language through gestures and is linked with the Latin verb "gesticŭlus" which refers, literally, to body movement as a form of communication.
