We started to talk about manners and etiquette. There are rules you must follow in specific situations.
- How to greet people you do know or don't; Shaking hands, with two or three, or even four kisses on the cheek, hugging, bowing;
- When you are eating, that it is called "table manners". In some places, it's a good sign to belch after the meal because it means you are satisfied, but it's not so good to use toothpicks;
- What is "polite" to do or not to do like to arrive fifteen minutes late tops;
- In some countries there are foods that you should avoid because it's a "taboo"; for instance, in India they don't eat meat because cows are considered divine beings. And we don't eat dogs in Brazil, but chinese people doesn't have problems with that.
