Let’s learn
“Kiss on the cheek” is common in European countries like France and Italy, used among relatives, friends and acquaintances(熟人) to show friendliness and closeness.
“Bow” is typical in East Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea, used to show respect and politeness.How deep you bow shows the level of respect you have for the other person.
“Bump fists” is a very casual and modern greeting, popular among friends. It's a quick and cool way to say "hello" or "well done".
“Rub noses”is the traditional greeting etiquette of the Maori people in New Zealand, symbolizing the exchange of “the breath of life”.
“Shake hands” is widespread around the world. It is a common way to show friendliness and politeness in formal or informal occasions.
“Hug” is commonly used among relatives, friends and close people in many Western countries like the United States to express greetings, love and other emotions.
Listen to three conversations at a party. Match the guests with their feelings. Share your ideas on why they have these feelings.
