Where Its Offensive: Hawaii, the South Pacific, Korea, China, Thailand.
禁忌地:夏威夷、太平洋群岛、韩国、泰国
Whats Offensive 禁忌:
Take off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the hostess will find you uncivilized, but fail to remove your shoes before entering a home in Asia, Hawaii, or the Pacific Islands and youll be considered disrespectful. Not only does shoe removal very practically keeps sand and dirt out of the house, its a sign of leaving the outside world behind。
到伦敦人家里参加宴会时脱掉鞋子,女主人会认为你不文明,但去亚洲、夏威夷或太平洋群岛的居民家中不脱鞋却被认为失礼。脱掉鞋子不仅把沙粒与尘土留在了门外,更意味着把外面的世界抛之脑后。
What You Should Do Instead 对策:
If you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing your laces. If not, keep the shoes on。
如果你在门口看到一排鞋子,就解开自己的鞋带。否则,就穿鞋进去吧!
Where Its Offensive: India, Morocco, Africa, the Middle East.
禁忌地:印度、非洲、中东
Whats Offensive 禁忌:
Many cultures still prefer to eat using traditional methods--their hands. In these cases, food is often offered communally, which is why its important to wash your hands before eating and observe the right-hand-is-for-eating and the left-hand-is-for-other-duties rule. If you eat with your left hand, expect your fellow diners to be mortified. And when partaking from a communal bowl, stick to a portion thats closest to you. Do not get greedy and plunge your hand into the center。
