Don't give gifts regardless of customs and taboos

Before giving a gift, you should understand the identity, hobbies and taboos of the recipient, so as to avoid giving a gift properly and make both parties feel embarrassed. For example, when the other party marries, don't send "clock". Because "bell" and "end" are homophonic, "send the end" is unlucky. In addition, we should respect each other's national habits, such as cattle are Hindu holy things, you want to give each other beef jerky will make him angry.

When giving gifts to foreign friends, we should know the customs and taboos of different countries in detail as follows:

British people, generally give inexpensive but commemorative gifts, remember not to send lilies, because it means death. The person who receives the gift should open it in front of everyone.

Americans, things to send odd, and pay attention to packaging. They think snails and horseshoes are mascots.

French, when sending flowers, don't send chrysanthemums, azaleas and yellow flowers; don't send gifts with crane patterns; don't send walnuts. They think crane is the symbol of fool, and walnut is not auspicious.

Russian, flowers to send odd number. Treat the guests with bread and salt to show friendship and respect. The most taboo to give money to others, because it means charity and insult.

Japanese people bring gifts when they visit relatives and friends or attend banquets. When receiving and sending gifts, you should use both hands, and you can't open them face to face. When you see the giver again, mention the gift and thank him. Don't give combs or gifts with Fox and badger patterns, because the Japanese pronunciation of combs is similar to death. In addition, chrysanthemums are generally Royal flowers, so most people do not send chrysanthemums.

In view of this, the gift must be considered carefully, in order to avoid extraneous.
