Sometimes heard that it is in our genes. during ww2 a Lot of immigrants (mostly from spain and italy but Also Japan, Russia and germany like my grandparents) scape from their countries and came here, creating a country with a Lot of diversity. Today the 90% of the people of my country were immigrant descendant. Our loud speaking is attribued to italian descendants so i think there's a little of true in there 😂 forgive my English!

It's usually a regional thing. Like in the southeast there's a plethora of that so called, "superficial politeness," and it's common to answer with "Sir," or "Ma'am," respective of gender. Though conversely, in North East it's fairly common to be apathetic and curt towards strangers. I'm from the former, and have only been to the latter once, but everyone I know whose been up north tells me the same thing.

I'm from Fiji, and while we are known to be VERY friendly, we are somewhat conservative. I remember going to a bakery one morning to see some western tourists whispering amongst themselves and laughing. Nothing wrong with that... Except that their "whispering" was actually flipping loud indeed. I knew it was rude, but I couldn't help but stare at them for how clueless they were about the noise they were making. We Fijians, while friendly, have a culture of silence. We are noisy party animals indeed but in ordinary circumstances we are usually quiet and generally soft spoken

Well atleast you know now. Servers make less than minimum wage in the US and have to tip out the bartender, busser, host, and foodrunner a portion of their sales. If you dont tip them that money comes out of their own pocket. Also most places you can not mention a tip to your guest or youll be fired so even if they know you probably dont know, they cant tell you.

A prominent church pastor once told the story of where a guy he knew was attending an international conference and was eating dinner with the foreign guests (they were from a multitude of countries). The guy didn't know if the man beside him knew English, so he tried starting conversation by making loud chewing noises and saying "Mmmmm good, eh?" The foreigner looked at him very strangely and then moments later was called to speak at the podium in the room. The foreigner, to the guy's horror, spoke perfect English and gave a whole speech. Then, at the end, he cleared his throat and said, "glub glub, mmmm good, eh?" The American guy died of embarrassment. The moral of this story, the pastor said, is KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE and NEVER assume a language problem.

I'm Spanish, I can't exactly say the "universal" reasons that apply to the whole country; but I can certain say these: 1. When asking someone for directions in english (or simply talk to them) please, speak slowly, not everyone is fluent in english and it's pretty difficult to understand certain accents. 2. A lot of people think that Spanish people speaks loud (even in public), this used to be a thing (at least in my city [thankfully] people usually don't speak loud in public anymore). But DON'T do it, seriously, only rude and hick people do that. 3. In Spain a lot of people likes to hug or kiss (in the cheeks) when meeting someone (when it's not something formal), I don't like that thing either but a lot of people consider it rude to denied it, I suggest you to simply extend your hand when meeting someone, that'll avoid that close contact and offending the other person. 4. Also also, we have the stigma about bulls, well, I can guarantee you that not everyone likes it and you definitely avoid making fun of it or even question about it; I personally don't mind tell you the few thing I know but a lot of people will be troubled, ashamed or even pretty mad. I hope that someone would find this useful.

For German, Dutch and perhaps Nordic people: be very aware that the natural distinction made in these countries between what someone does and who someone is does not translate to other cultures. For example, if you go to the US and someone enthusiastically talks to you about their sport, favorite music etc., don’t say you don’t particularly care for that sport, music, etc. Particularly if it’s a sport or instrument they play, your comment will be taken as a comment about them as a person

I'm from the US and I've always found that so weird! If they mention something and you tell them that you don't like it, it's not a jab at that person. I don't get why people don't realize that. If it was a comment such as, "You're so dumb for liking that sport!" Then I'd understand but most of the time it's not!

In case you come to Spain: - No, we don't have parties 24/7. - No, we won't tolerate alcohol abuse or massive parties, especially if drunk people get aggresive. Don't do any of them unless you want the police to get called or want to spend the night arrested in a cell. - Yes, we are sometimes a bit loud. But if in a certain moment people are quiet, be quiet. Otherwise, people will feel uncomfortable around you. - Yes, we tend to treat most people like we already knew them. - Yes, meals are usually quite plentiful and, most importantly, we stay for hours sitting at the table talking after lunch. - Tipping the waiters is just a personal preference. Do it just of you think the service was outstanding. - Don't feel awkward if people you don't know wave at you or greet. It's completely normal. - Not everyone in Spain can speak English, but a lot of people do. If you know some simple Spanish words like "hola", "gracias", "por favor" or "adiós", we'll me happy to know that at least you're trying to learn our language. Don't be afraid of making mistakes, we know it's quite hard. Have fun!

I spoke Spanish in Brazil, not because I didn't know they speak Portuguese, but because I found the people around me understood 75% or more of what I was saying. And after a day or two of getting used to the different pronunciation, I understood about 75% of what they were saying. The people I was with did not seem to be offended, when they introduced me they would mention that I speak "castellano" (that was the word they used). I definitely think speaking Spanish enhanced my trip because I was able to talk to local people, at least to some extent.

My mom grew up in Thailand, and the pointers in this video were accurate. In addition to the ones mentioned, not only is it rude to put your feet "too close" to another person's head, it can also be done from as distance, if you even point your foot at someone's head. Also, the custom of leaving ones shoes at the door when entering a house, as mentioned in the India segment of the video, is also followed in Thailand. As an American, I can also say that another thing we can be touchy about is personal space, as mentioned in the Sweden segment. It is considered rude to get too physically close to someone, unless it is an immediate family member or your significant other.

In Brazil, most people actually don't make a fuss or get mad when a foreigner makes a faux pas. Just relax. People won't yell, call the police or punch your nose. Anyway, here are some courtesy tips: 1 - Don't get offended if someone calls you "gringo". It may be a derogatory term in some Latin american countries but in Brazil it only means "foreign person". Examples: (1) Duas cervejas, por favor. Uma para mim e outra para o gringo aqui. Two pints, please. One for me, one for the gringo. (2) Se você quer aprender inglês mais rápido, procure um professor gringo. If you want a faster English learning, hire a gringo teacher (3) As informações desse anúncio estão confusas. Os gringos não vão entender. The information on this ad are confusing. The gringos won't understand. 2 - You can speak Spanish but make sure you're sorry for not speaking Portuguese. Please be careful, some words in Spanish are misleading in Portuguese and vice versa. 3 - DON'T SMELL. We may be poor, but we're very concerned about our personal hygiene. Please make sure your armpits have no trace of BO. 4 - If you are invited for a (INFORMAL) party scheduled for 10 pm, it means you are expected to arrive at 10:30 pm 5 - Learn that (except death) "every problem or situation can be solved with a "jeitinho".

@@TewChains As I understand it, tipping was encouraged during The Great Depression as restaurant owners simply didn't have enough money to pay their staff sometimes. It became ingrained in the culture, and now, waiters and waitresses rely on tips for more than 70% of their wages most of the time. Basically, they put the burden of making sure their employees actually get paid fairly on the consumer. No American I know likes the system, but the reality is that if you don't tip, you're effectively denying an employee their pay, so we begrudgingly do it and everyone just acts like the whole process isn't completely absurd.

I'm French and yes, it is absolutely true that 90% of the country doesn't speak English. Everytime I hear some tourists trying to speak English in a shop I usually insert myself in the conversation to be the translator. But I wouldn't say it is an embarrassment to speak English to the waiter or anyone else, the only thing that's gonna happen is that you're going to irritate the person because for some reason, French people tend to think that they are the only people in the entire world who do not need to learn English, and that you should be the one learning French. (If I wanted to analyse that behavior, I'd say it goes back to last century when France had a lot of colonies and French was spoken in a lot of countries. And it still is, like in Africa for example, but aside from business men and a few other people, France didn't get the memo that English is the "universal" language now)

tips for uk visitors: don't provoke or touch the guardsmen. they are real soldiers and also carry live ammunition in their rifles. they won't hesitate in shouting or screaming at you. don't ever discuss your salary about your job. you're bound to create resentment with others. don't cut in line. this will piss off a lot of people and you'll get yelled at. and another favourite one, don't stand on the left on the escalators unless you're walking down or running. if someone shoves you aside because you were standing on the left, don't get upset or angry.

In Iceland you shouldn't tip workers. It signifies that you think they make low wages and can be looked upon as a rude gesture. How ever, we are getting used to tourists trying to tip because of the massive tourist traffic in Iceland the last few years. So giving a tip isn't as offensive as it used to be. Usually any tips that are offered will be declined and at most you might get some stink eye from doing it. Icelanders don't expect tips or gifts from tourists. We pick up hitchhikers a lot and we rarely ask for gas money unless it's out of the way. The only thing we expect from tourists is to respect our country, culture and ESPECIALLY our nature. Iceland lives off its nature, our nature brings in money, provides food and happiness. Ruining our nature will ruin our country. Therefore we had to set some laws. Just ripping up some moss or driving off road can net you a fine up to $3.000USD, and anything worse than that can get you a higher fine or even jail time followed with a high fine. We welcome everyone to our country, just remember; don't tip and don't go destroying our nature.

I'm from Germany and the most annoying thing I saw a few tourists do was in a concentration camp. I think they were American, but I'm not quite sure. Anyways, at the entrance there was a guide telling them a few rules, and one of these tourists thought it would be funny if he refuses if everyone understood everything with "Jawohl my Führer". He was thrown out, but his friends seem to be even worse. While seeing a few hooks where humans (!) were hanged one of them took a few Fotos looking like his friend hanging at one of them. There also was a heap of like shoes and clothing of the dead inmates. Everyone was told not to make photos of the possessions of the brutally torched and killed inmates, so what they did? The made a video one of them pointing at a pair of shoes laying besides a heap shouting 'what are those'. Seeing that made me so sick that I almost get on them. Well, what I did was telling the staff there what these assholes did on now they maybe (or may be) get sued because holocaust denial and such things are very serious crimes here in Germany. For me being German and having a polish great-grandfather havin drived trains to Auschwitz I hurts even more to see such disrespectful behaviour...
