Do NT and ND speak different languages?

Homebird

Sometimes a NT will ask me something and I don't understand what they are asking or misinterpret it. 

Then the opposite way around I will ask a question so I can make suitable adjustments personally if needed and it can be seen as criticism, because the reason for asking is not understood. 

I am trying to work out if this is simply a communication problem I have or it is to do with the different way a NT brain works.

  • My big problem with verbal communication face to face Is I lack facial expression and/or body language and depend on what I know to be true without expressing an opinion on what I do not know or what I am unsure about. Then I either go mute or stumble and bumble in a desperate attempt to keep conversational momentum going (babbling blather).  I'm useless at small talk.
