“Thumbs-up” is perhaps the most common among hand gestures and has been used for thousands of years. In China, it is a positive sign, often used to praise someone. While this gesture is widely used in most Western cultures to mean “well done” or “good”, in some Middle Eastern countries it can be considered rude. In some European countries like France, the gesture has another meaning—people use it to ask for a ride by the road. In Germany, it simply means “number one”.

The “V” gesture is another one that is quite common. In China, it means victory, success, and happiness. It is usually used to celebrate winning a competition or achieving a goal. People also use it when taking photos. However, in UK, South Africa and Ireland, sticking two fingers up in a “V” with your palm facing inwards is very bad.
Touching your thumb and index finger to form a circle is the OK sign. In UK and China, it means “everything is going well” or “agreement”. In China, it also stands for the “number three”. But in Brazil, it is seen as a rude gesture. In France, it means “zero” or “you are nothing”. In Japan, it stands for money.
