BODY LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL DIFFERENCES<br />
The body language people use often communicates more about their feelings than the<br />
words they are saying. We use body movements, hand gestures, facial expressions, and changes<br />
in our voice to communicate with each other. Although some body language is universal, many<br />
gestures are culturally specific and may mean different things in different countries.<br />
If you want to give someone the nod in Bulgaria, you have to nod your head to say no<br />
and shake it to say yes – the exact opposite of what we do! In Belgium, pointing with your index<br />
finger or snapping your fingers at someone is very rude.<br />
In France, you shouldn’t rest your feet on tables or chairs. Speaking to someone with<br />
your hands in your pockets will only make matters worse. In the Middle East, you should never<br />
show the soles of your feet or shoes to others as it will be seen as a grave insult. When eating,<br />
only use your right hand because they use their left hands when going to the bathroom.<br />
In Bangladesh, the ‘thumbs-up’ is a rude sign. In Myanmar, people greet each other by<br />
clapping, and in India, whistling in public is considered rude.<br />
In Japan, you should not blow your nose in public, but you can burp at the end of a meal<br />
to show that you have enjoyed it. The ‘OK’ sign (thumb and index finger forming a circle)<br />
means ‘everything is good’ in the West, but in China it means nothing or zero. In Japan, it means<br />
money, and in the Middle East, it is a rude gesture.<br />

D. to clean their tables and chairs<br />
