Do you know?
In Uzbekistan men and women greet each other
in different ways: they shake hands or kiss each
other. In Europe if men and women are friends
they kiss each other. In England it is usually one
kiss, in France two and in Poland three! Eskimos
say hello by touching their noses. Maoris in New
Zealand do this too. In Uzbekistan we nod and
say 'Yes' or shake our heads and
say 'No'.
English and American people nod
nod and shake
their heads. Sometimes they say 'Yes' or 'No' too.
But Bulgarian* and Greek
Greek* people shake their
heads for 'Yes' and nod for 'No'.
