Verbal Communication refers to the words we use and the way we use them.

Vocal Communication refers to our tone, volume, pitch, expression, pronunciation, pauses, accents, emphasis; and of course, periods of silence. In other words, it is how we sound

Verbal refers to communication through words or language, whether spoken or written. Vocal specifically refers to the sound produced by the voice box in speaking or singing. Essentially, verbal is broader and encompasses all forms of language-based communication, while vocal is more specific to the act of using one's voice.
