According to history, the pinky extended was used by French aristocracy (who were very promiscuous) as a sign to who had a venereal disease. When you raised your pinky, you were signaling to anyone who wanted to be with you that you had an STD, so they would know and others who had an STD would know. I learned this from a video by William Hanson who also addressed this faux pa. 🤘

i extend my pinkie because my pinkie is short and cannot reach to whatever i am holding in my hand.

[@jerrymiller2367]

I wonder if this is where the admonition to "mind your p's and q's" comes from. The letters p and q on a keyboard are typed using the pinky fingers. And it wasn't that long ago that we were taught to extend our pinkies as the "proper" way to hold a drink. I remember it in the 1960s and it was regarded as a semi-automatic position of the fingers that you didn't really have to think about once you got in the habit.

[@fantabulousstargirl]

I personally think more young people are saying "no problem" instead of your welcome in certain scenarios because often times favors and other requests are "burdens", especially if they are for people who are not immediate family or close friends. They are not always "welcome" to my time and favors and sometimes it's not necessarily a pleasure to work for them.

[@Shay45]

For younger people too “You’re Welcome” will come off wrong. Many people use it for sarcasm or if they are annoyed with a request.

I’d just like to share my thoughts from someone who uses “no problem” more. I’ve heard it more often among young people. The reason I prefer it over “you’re welcome” is because to me, YW sounds like it’s redirecting it back to the person thanking like “you’re free to ask for help again” when I just wanted to focus on complimenting the other person for their help. NP is like reassurance to me that they weren’t burdened by doing a favor. That’s why I personally like it more and prefer hearing that back. I definitely agree that YW is a more “proper” expression. Older people also tend to like it more. Just wanted to share my thoughts as someone on NP who doesn’t intend any malice from it lol

[@isa9964]

I definitely agree with you. I've heard people say, "You're welcome" so snobbishly like, "Oh, I know you couldn't handle it on your own." (This is just my experience.) And it grates on my nerves and makes me not want to reach out for help. I've always thought of, "no problem" as a shorten version of, "It was no problem helping you." But that could just be me.

[@logitek7778]

I also agree with you.

[@jhonsmith5710]

I think "you're welcome" is almost condensing. As saying "I'm doing you a favor." No problem sounds to me like "it wasn't a big deal. Don't worry about it." But I always just say "my pleasure" just because I feel it's the most neutral out of the 3. Context might also depend tho.

[@Shay45]

@@jhonsmith5710 I hate to agree with you but I COMPLETELY agree. With “You’re Welcome” all I hear in my head is “I’m doing you a favor” which is something that I DO NOT like

[@andrewtenorio3195]

I was actually going to make a comment about this very subject. I completely agree "You're Welcome" just doesn't work in our society today. As language changes so did the context of "You're Welcome" as it's now seen as condescending and snobbish.

[@IrishChola7]

Most of these are just plain common sense. Unfortunately, decent manners seem to be lost on so many people these days. Thank you for a wonderful, classy video! Hopefully everyone who views it will learn some valuable lessons. 💜

[@lasusurradoradegatos]

The topic about names is so true! My name is Cristina and specially when I get email answers from people outside Spain they usually write my name so wrong! I get emails every day like this: Christina, Kristin, Christine, Cristiana...and most of times they're replying an email from me with my signature on it. I find it so incredibly rude and annoying! I usually take my time to find out how to write other persons name correctly even if there's times when my keyboard doesn't even allows me to do it as there are names from other countries that have more symbols we don't use here.

[@well-knownsnoozer3385]

Same with me. Admin workers always misspell my name :(

[@tinabean713]

I feel for you. I used to work for a woman named Margarita and so many people would either misspell or mispronounce her name Marguerite, and it confused me because no one ever mispronounces the drink.

I clearly remember my physical education instructor who gave me a rap on the knuckles in 5th grade, while he was supervising our class during lunch break to make sure we were all following dining etiquette. My pinky finger was pointing outwards while eating and he corrected me that it was impolite to point your pinky while eating or drinking. The lesson stays with me till today.😀

[@ma.9029]

The “no problem” always sounded weird to me, English is not my first language and when I learned it I would always answer with You’re welcome or My pleasure but many teachers told me this wouldn’t sound natural at all, but for me No problem could give a wrong idea as you’ve said of burden, so I’m glad at least I was doing it the right way.

[@laibakausar8161]

The b&d technique is so helpful, I always used to forget where to put my breads, I guess not anymore. I have seen many videos where people suggest to extend the pinky out and I always find it frustrating. Thank you for correcting.

[@JamilaMusayeva]

You are welcome 🤗

[@katr9923]

that "no problem" response is so funny and takes me back to my childhood in the Midwest of the US. It's a very common inside joke among people who grew up in that area and for some reason particularly if you were raised in the Lutheran Church to use the phrase "no problem". I'm still trying to break myself of that habit.

[@tysongames2750]

Oh my gosh! I'm a man who knows about the handshake thing, but in my small town of local yokels, I've had women get angry with me for not offering my hand first. Even worse! The people in my town very often eat off of each other's plates during dinner 🤮.

[@christinedhari6970]

Thank you Jamila for reminding me that I should still be following ways I was brought up with. In this day and age most of the people around me don't follow any etiquette at all but that shouldn't mean that I should forget my Mother's teaching. I found the tea cup holding session interesting. I've been told and have seen that the pinky is held up when drinking tea. I must admit my pinky automatically tends to stick out a little bit when holding my tea cup but not held up. I will practice tucking it in from now.

[@staceykersting705]

I surprised we don't all know these basic tips. Another favorite of mine is: make sure to hold the door open for anyone behind you. If someone has a heavy bag or bundle (or sleepy toddler) make sure to hold the door so they can precede you.

[@jerrymiller2367]

In the building where I work, the Chinese students ALWAYS let me off the elevator first or through a doorway first, and without making a big deal about it or even making eye contact. It's because I'm older than most of them, and it's deeply ingrained in their culture to do this. It's kind of nice.

[@Clolou]

Great video. In Britain the ring finger and pinky should follow the angle of the rest of the fingers they shouldn't be tucked away.

[@queenchiomaofficial]

Such great etiquette tips! Thanks for sharing. I’ve noticed that I don’t like it when someone says ‘Hi’ to me (whether they know me or not). I think it’s because I work in PR so I’m used to going the extra mile in terms of politeness and also because of my Nigerian heritage. Nigerians generally expect you to say ‘Hello’, ‘Good Morning’, ‘Good afternoon’ or ‘Good evening’. 😊

[@JamilaMusayeva]

You are welcome

[@alevtina7403]

I am an ESL student and I thought that " No problem" means that the person who did a favor to you didn't have any problems to help you that time.

What went through my mind was the reply I was taught in Spanish 'de nada' or 'it's nothing' so..... mind you I never felt comfortable saying that though.

[@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042]

[@pinkandgreen7681]

[@gusmonster59]

The name issue - I have a an uncommon last name (uncommon in America) that isn't pronounced as it looks. No one purposely mispronounces it, it often spelled in very creative ways. I can see how this can also being an issue with uncommon first or foreign names. Unless some is named 'Mary' and someone else goes out their way to mispronounce it, I can't see a mispronunciation as an etiquette blunder.

[@ajs11201]

Like many things, I'd say that context matters here. If two folks are meeting for the first time, then messing up a name is understandable. However, I was recently attending a staff event, and one of the big bosses entered to give thanks to the front line staff, and he blundered a few of the names. Mind you, the "big boss" is at least four levels up on the org chart from those he thanked, but it's really a horrible look that he didn't take the time to learn the names of those he intended to publicly thank since they all do indeed work for him, albeit indirectly.

[@suffragettesoul2687]

In cross-cultural settings the matter of pronouncing correctly comes with limitations, some of them out of the control of the speaker, some able to be improved in time based on the grade or multilingual erudition, musical ear, the mother tongue and how close or far it is from the language of the name. The throat is genetically designed as a flute for the sounds of the mother tongue. This is why the young can modify it it and the old don't due to the level of elasticity.

[@francespike9780]

Mistake #8 - placing cutlery. I've never seen anyone return cutlery to the table after using it. When pausing - two cutlery items are placed in an inverted V, as demonstrated. When finished and to signal place can be removed by waiting staff - cutlery items are placed side by side - not at 6 o'clock but at the angle as first demonstrated.

Excellent video, Jamila; thank you. You have to wonder where "you're welcome" came from, and what was said before that became common. Apparently many people infer too much formality is present when one says "you're welcome" , or even a mild or implied insult, depending on the tone of voice and other context. And what about the French "Je vous en prie" which means "you're welcome" in English, but literally means "I pray for you." That certainly could be perceived as an insult too !

Some do get offended even when you ask how to pronounce it or you don't get it right the second or third time. I think included in manners is mercy. When folks mispronounce my name from a foreign country, I understand. It can be hard. It is not purposeful.

Another good etiquette rule for men shaking hands with women: don't use the same power grip you use with other men. Women generally appreciate having their hands treated like baby birds. They will not think less of you for refraining to fracture their phalanxes.

[@patrickkobolt3069]

Precisely.

[@bitethatbullet7054]

.... are women’s hands so delicate that they can’t stand a normal handshake? I don’t think so.

[@TheConfusername]

@@bitethatbullet7054 Most women's hands are indeed more delicate than men's in terms of muscles and bone density and while you may have the good sense not to go overboard, I've encountered many a well-meaning gentleman who inadvertently communicated the opposite of friendliness with an overzealous grip. I'm just saying it's better to err on the side of gentleness.

[@jerrymiller2367]

At my wedding reception I shook the hand of an elderly lady. My thoughts were to give a firm handshake, which I was taught was a sign of respect and interest for the other person and it makes you look sincere. Well, I did and she cried out in pain. It turned out she had arthritis in her hands and my "firm" (but not too firm!) handshake was much too hard for her. Live and learn! Now, with older women I might let their hand drape over mine and just lift their hand---not going as far as to kiss their hand, but sort of like that gesture, along with a smile and greeting. And even with younger women I'm reluctant to shake their hand "too" hard" or long, as I would for a man, as they might see it as sexual harassment or a sexual assault. Best to leave them alone.

[@wendigo1919]

I would hate if a man treated my hand like that of a baby bird when shaking it. How off-putting. I appreciate a proper handshake. It should be logical to not do so to an elderly person, or someone that appears frail due to health reasons. A proper, firm hand speaks volumes.. coming from a man, or from a woman. Wimpy hand shakes freak me out.

One's children should always be taught that it is both unpolite and unkind not to thank dear auntie or grandfather as quickly as possible ; it's good to explain it to them by asking them to put themselves in the donator's place : wouldn't they be sad if they gave a friend something and got no thank you in return ? I always say etiquette, the one coming from the heart, is treating others with respect and thoughtfulness.

Your skin. Your confidence. Your knowledge. Thank you 💗

Wow ! What a video! I love your elegance 💛

[@kasiaa7675]

I just wanted to say that I love your videos. Watching you and gaining the etiquette knowledge is a pleasure.

[@MikSonus]

Just so soothing. I love your quiet confidence. 💜

[@petravandermeulen4751]

Loved it! Especially the point about a person's name. I have been told so many times how I "should" pronounce my name. Thank you for this video. Please continue.

[@JamilaMusayeva]

You are welcome

[@IrishChola7]

People actually dictate how you should pronounce your own name?? Geez, that's terrible. 😧

The handshaking part is on point.. I cant handshake men for religious reasons, i ve been uncomfortable shaking their hands because i dont want them to feel embarrassed, but lately i just prefer to stick to my principles, i gently put my two hands on my chest and smile saying good morning so they dont extend their hands.. But i met rude men unfortunately, they extend their hands and when i say that i am. Sorry i cant, they be like upset all day and hold grudges..

What happens if you are greeted by a man who must handshake women for religious reasons? Whose religion takes precedence?

[@sarahinsf]

@@federicoytbe What religion asks that of men?

[@helensemrau7442]

Sorry, hard to get past, “They be like” in a business setting.

As a lady you have every right not to offer or accept a handshake from a man. If you offer your hand the man should accept

[@hel_9155]

@@federicoytbe 1 year ago and this is when i see your question, your freedom ends when other people's freedom begins, this is a consentual act, you cant force someone to do a handshake, you are crossing their boundaries, but you are free to decline them or accept their approach to a handshake. You can decline handshakes because of many reasons : one of them is that not many people wash their hands ;) and also i dont like touching people.

Thank you so much Jamila for the classic etiquette video!

[@rimadas1910]

I definitely need a series..!💕

[@yenniavendano9360]

I loved these tips. I have to agree in regards to our names. I try so hard for others and am so taken aback when people say my name incorrectly. Maybe we can get a reactions video? On how to respond with etiquette when someone does something like saying our name wrong.

[@LittleSanch]

Thank you Jamila! ✨ It was a very informative video.

[@zulygilcalixto4164]

It was really helpful. We definitely need more videos like this one

[@TheKatherine1958]

Hello Jamila, What a happy occurrence in finding your video come through my feed on KZbin! I was raised having etiquette as a most important part of my life. Recently though, I had a person tell me that I was: “old school” and that etiquette was ‘dead’! It seems this kind of thinking is partially the reason the world we live in is in such a horrible situation. So I thank you ever so much.

I'm so lucky to watch your videos and improve myself. You are like a sister to me, thank you dear ❤ -Greetings from Turkey xo

Hello Jamila, Thank you for informing about common etiquette mistakes in our lives. That's very important to learn for us

[@deroux]

Great as always Jamila. Thank you.

This was super helpful and well explained! Thank you, Jamila!

[@JamilaMusayeva]

Welcome 🤗

[@___lbl3849]

Thank you very much, Lady Jamila! Such an inspiring video. Hehe As you mentioned when people respond to "Thank you" as 'No problem" I feel uncertain as If I made a person do a favour against their will. "My pleasure" or "You are welcome" sound right for me as well. 😄

[@Shay45]

If someone says “No Problem” it usually means that is was no problem. If someone says “You’re Welcome” it could have been a burden to them OR it was no burden at all. You never know.

[@___lbl3849]

@@Shay45 Oops Not for me. "No problem" sounds rude to me. :))))

[@micheng28]

Thank you Ms Jamila. I really learn many things from you. ☺️

[@kimgisedai9780]

Thank you so much for listing these. I knew quite a few already, but I am guilty of the "sticking the pinky out" club when it came to tea. I'll be sure to correct myself and my children the next little tea party we have.
