ways to greet

Good morning, ashly rodelo suaza and I'll tell you how I greet the people closest to me.

As in any other language, in Colombia there is a great variety of greetings from which we can choose. Whether a way of greeting or saying goodbye in Colombia is appropriate depends on the context and the person we are addressing. For this reason, it is important that we have a wide vocabulary and that we are aware of how and when to use the most common expressions to say hello in Spanish.

For example, the way you would greet a close friend is definitely different than the way you would greet someone you've just been introduced to. Similarly, writing a Christmas card to a family member won't start out the same way you would in a motivation letter when applying for a job.

This is because some of the greeting expressions in Spanish are considered formal or appropriate in professional settings, while others are informal and more appropriate for casual or family situations. Likewise, certain greetings and farewells are used both in writing and in conversation, but there are also some that are only used when writing, or only used when speaking.

 

With my mom and dad I hug and kiss

With my sisters it's hello sister or a kiss on the forehead

With my grandparents we kiss on the cheek

With my friends we kiss each other on the cheek or just say hello babe or how are you

With my boyfriend I kiss on the mouth or a kiss on the forehead

With my niece a kiss and a hug.

different greetings in different parts of the world

*Japan: If you learn to say hello, you will know how to say goodbye! The greeting, like the farewell, is done using a 15 degree bow, where the form varies slightly depending on the gender. The man will bend over with his arms close to his body and the palms of his hands facing inward. The woman, on the other hand, will bow, crossing her hands in front. The real meaning in making this gesture is that we are putting our weakest part in the hands of the opponent, an act that shows trust and respect for the other person.

*China: Like Japan, but different. China and Japan have many differences, although due to ignorance, many people around the world think that they are similar. When it comes to greeting, these countries coincide by bowing as a greeting. However, instead of bowing your head like in Japan, you tend to bow your shoulders more to the waist.

*Mongolia: Blue strip in cotton or silk? They both symbolize the same thing. If you are invited, the tradition to greet is to deliver a blue cotton or silk strip called "fairy" symbolizing the kindness and hospitality of the Mongolian people. This gesture must be accepted with both hands, crossing the arms over the chest as a sign of gratitude.

*Iran: "You are my eyes." This is the typical phrase of this singular greeting accompanied by the gesture of closing the eyes and placing the hands on the face. It should be noted that this way of greeting is more popular among older people. This unusual way of welcoming symbolizes the hospitality and trust offered by Iranian citizens.

*Micronesia: If they raise their eyebrows at you, they're greeting you! In many parts of the world, this gesture is used to express disbelief or astonishment. Surely you did not imagine that it is used as a greeting in the other part of the world.

*New Zealand:Called hongi, this is a custom of the culture of the Polynesian Maori ethnic groups. It is used as a form of greeting in all the surroundings, and to do it correctly you have to shake hands while looking into the eyes and getting closer to the other person until the noses and foreheads are in contact.

*Spain: In this country it is common for two kisses to be given on the cheek, it is said that the Spanish start with the right cheek and then with the left. This greeting is normally given between two women; or a man and a woman. But between two men, they shake hands. This greeting is given in other European countries such as Italy.

*In the United States, people greet each other as we see in American movies: with a loving hug. There are also even more informal versions such as a high five or an informal handshake. The greetings are also like in the movies: “What's up?” "How are you?". Small talk, everyone.

*In France people greet each other with "Bonjour" or "Salut" and kiss, depending on the region, once, twice, three, or four times! Pay attention to the form "vous", since it is more respectful and is used to approach the elderly or strangers, and to the form of trust "tu".

*The Dutch greet each other with kisses if they are relatives, if not it can become something a bit awkward so, when in doubt, shake hands. He says goodbye with the expression “doei doei!” or “from mazzel!”.

On the other hand, our Latino friends from the Dominican Republic greet each other with a high five or by joining fists if they are men, or with a kiss on the right cheek if they are women. Sometimes they hug, but be careful with the flirtation typical of the Caribbean charisma! They greet each other with “What do they say?” he responds with “to ta bien” and says goodbye with “a pot ta to” to say “see you”.

favorite cinematography I always like to watch romance movies, the role played by the actors in these movies really caught my attention. I really like the love part, I've always wanted to see "you understand me" Full has recommended it to me but I never got it I've seen, the best movie I've seen and I liked it too much, this one has been stolen triumphs, one of my movies that come in a saga, the worst movie I've seen, a favorite that I would never want to see "from my heaven" is a sad movie and that does not attract my attention at all, lately I have seen many movies about musicals, I did not know that they followed me but it caught my attention to see them and I ended up liking them, on the side of my cinematographic characteristics, I go for romance, action, drama , fantasy, adventures, they are some of the ones I like the most, before I used to watch many shark movies but the truth is that they no longer attract my attention, they even scare me, the ones I would always prefer to see are the romance ones I consider myself f a number one of them.
