When walking, ask the elderly and women to go first; when riding in the car, ask the elderly and women to get on first; when getting on and off the elevator, ask the elderly and women to go first.

Whether receiving a foreign guest at the airport or a hotel, regardless of whether the guest is a man or a woman, the host should extend his hand first. The handshake should be appropriately firm. Too light will make people feel cold, and too strong will make people feel rude. Men and women can shake hands more gently. Don't hold the whole hand, only the fingers. Men should take off their gloves when shaking hands, but women generally do not need to take off their gloves unless they meet people of high status. When shaking hands, be sure not to stand at the door with one foot inside and one foot outside. When shaking hands with multiple people at the same time, be careful not to cross each other. Wait until others have finished shaking hands before extending your hand.

Hugging is an intimate etiquette common among acquaintances and friends in European, American, Middle Eastern and South American countries, and is sometimes performed at the same time as kissing

the head is slightly bent forward.

In external interactions, when the other party greets you with this etiquette, we should also return the gift with folded hands, but we should be careful not to nod while folding our hands.

Others The world with complicated meeting etiquette has formed many meeting etiquette customs with strong regional and national styles: there is the "hat-off ceremony" popular in Western

countries, and there is the "hat-off ceremony" popular in Poland.

The etiquette of participating in foreign-related dances is quite particular, and you need to carefully understand and master it correctly:

The clothes and appearance must be beautiful and elegant. Because neat clothing can reflect people's politeness and spiritual outlook. If

it is a dance invited by foreigners, the dress requirements will usually be stated on the invitation, and the host's requirements should be respected when deciding to attend. Most people wear suits and evening gowns. Only formal dances held in Western countries require wearing a large dress or "tuxedo". But after all, the number of people wearing tuxedos at foreign-related events is very small. At present, according to our country's custom, in addition to casual clothes of various styles and colors, in many grand and formal occasions, we only wear dark-colored suits with good materials. If it is a hot party and the foreign host does not indicate that everyone should take off their clothes, the male guests cannot take off their outer clothes at will. When dancing, buttons should also be buttoned.
