When I meet people, I usually say "konnichiha" and bow. There are some greeting words in Japan, "ohayou", "konnichiha"and so on. When I talk with people who meet for the first time, I do it and shake hands as the same time. I think it is common knowledge that greeting other parson in every country, and greeting differ from country to country.
I think that the way of greeting vary in different countries. In America, people kiss and hug with greeting. In India, people join their hands in prayer each other. I don't know why they do so, but it is culture and religious involvement.
When I talk to different people, maybe I can't touch them. Perhaps I will be nervous then, so I will never do that. To touch different people when we talk, I think we take getting used to do that.
Do you know about India culture??? Great!!!
返信削除Surely, we have each culture about greeting. If I use India's culture, everyone sayWhat are you doing??" beucase they don't know that. If someone use this culture, I don't understand it. Touching is very sensitive for you. I agree with you.
If someone who don't know touch me, I reject it very much!! HOwever, it is someone who I know, I allow her to touch me. I believe that we have the connection of reliable.
It's just culture, maybe.
