"Farts are the noise from the other end" The most British thing that I heard in a while
@laurab98676 жыл бұрын
I've lived here in the US most of my life. When I became an adult, I realized that my parents, who were poor and very dysfunctional, had the decency to instill good manners and respect for others. I am so grateful for that. BUT now... It must be a sign of the times because good manners and etiquette are something of the past, here and everywhere it seems.

What I find weird is that when I encounter English tourists outside the UK, like in my travels to Vegas and LA, most of the time they're rude and unfriendly, but then when I'm in the UK, the people are friendly and helpful
@thehypest61186 жыл бұрын
evancortez2 its an odd phenomenon that I've heard about quite a few times now, the general idea behind it is that the tourists who stand out are impolite by nature and that's precisely why they stand out, the population of tourists who reflect the polite nature of the country as a whole tend to go unnoticed as we are quite quiet and reserved especially when abroad

I very much enjoyed your lecture about the English culture. I think it is absolutely identical with the traditional rules of my home country, Poland. Even the shoes-on/shoes off problem looks similar here, it depends on the type of the floor and the weather outside: if you have dirty, wet shoes because the old dirty snow is just melting, you are rather invited to take them off. Sometimes, for formal occasions, people may bring lighter shoes to put them on inside the host appartment. The only difference is the issue of showing up unattended. We have an old proverb that says "A guest in a house is God in a house". Even if it is not comfortable for you, you are expected to dedicate some time to the unexpected guest, offer them something to eat or - at least - a cup of tea/coffee. On the other hand, the unexpected guest knows they should not stay longer than, say, 30 minutes. Unfortunately, this old, beatiful habit is disappearing due to mobile phones: you are expected to call and ask first. In general, culture is just one half of a good society. Culture defines how to not disturb the others. However, it does not define, how to make the others happy. The other half is called love.

I don't actually get the shoes part. Provided that people wash their feet, the shoes are actually more dirty than my feet. I put my shoes on at home, leave the house, come to my friend's house and take them off = my feet came into contact with two floors and my shoes, while keeping the shoes on makes the floor come into contact with everything that I stepped on during my walk - spit, dirty water or even a spot when someone's dog pissed yesterday.

I mean that anyone would think that everybody in Turkey does baby changing on the table of a restaurant or that in Dubai people are very filthy. I've seen British guys in Spain having piss in the middle of a street after bozing litres of beer and I would not say "don't do as the English do". Except for allusions, the video we'll be more informative for people with culture and backgrounds from far east countries. For example, in Japan is a sympton of good education slurping the soup whereas in UK it is not acceptable. .

Once one of my colleagues was moving heavy things all by herself. I felt bad, so I politely asked, “Do you need a hand?” That’s one way to ask if she needs help. She looked up angrily and barked at me, “A hand? I have two hands!” I gave a nervous smile, mumbled, “Of course, sorry”, turned away, and kept my mouth shut. Since then I stopped using that expression “need a hand”. We have a Japanese colleague. If anybody asks, “How are you, Dr. Takagi?”, he becomes very uncomfortable with suspicion, and asks back, “Why?” So we have dropped general polite greetings with him. I had some non-English-speaking colleagues, things got more weird/ridiculous with them. They ask me, “How are you?”, I respond, “I am fine. Thank you. How about yourself?” They get very offended. One of them thought, “How about yourself” means “not your damn business”. Another guy thought, it means “What is that to you?”. A woman thought, it means “Go F- yourself”. Politeness is highly overrated.

Another thing I was taught was bad manners was sniffing in public. I live in Japan now and struggle with the disgusting sounds Japanese people continually make, sniffing and snorting in restaurants and on public transport. On the plus side, though, Japanese people understand the importance of taking shoes off upon entering someone’s home.

Different countries have different cultures. I believe we have to be polite wherever we are, but sometimes there are many people that break the rule or considered as impolite. I haven't been in England, but if I go there I must be really cautious with my action I think. Coz in my country Indonesia, we're more flexible. I agree in term of queueing/be on time/ those table manners/ and etc everything that you said in video, but you can find the opposite in my country. Sometimes we 'why you do that?' But we just let it go. It's just there are too many 'flexible' people here. Btw, in Indonesia you have to open your shoes/sandals if you go to other people's house, except if you go to rich people's house and the owner just ask you to put your shoes on, but majority we have to take off our shoes. And sometimes it's common as Indonesian to eat using our bare hands 😂. Anyway thanks for sharing. I want to visit London someday.

It's so funny to know that English people, call it French leave, when they leave a party without saying bye to anyone. Because, in Uzbekistan, Russia and all other post USSR counties, we call it English leave уходить по-английски (ukhodit po anglisky)

In Brazil, we also call it French leave.

As Jade explains in the video (21:34) the English don't call it that, in fact we don't have a name for it.

Also in Poland we leave the English way (wychodzić po angielsku). For the same reasons: if you don't want to bother 100 people and you just urgently need to go.

Thank you 😊 very much😊 Jade for creating us this tremendous video that I believe is one of the best I have seen so far. I think it is very useful and I got full mark on quiz. In my opinion, we need to learn more about English culture, manners and how to polite so that we can make a better world for us local and international citizens. I would really to see more of those videos such as part 2 , 3 etc. many thanks and as usual Teacher Jade you are awesome 👏🏻

Had a case when I went round to my friend’s place and the front door of her house was wide open, I just assumed she left it open for me as she knew I was gonna visit her, I still knocked and called her name, didn’t get any answer, so I walked in and glimpsed at her husband who didn’t wear a top and my friend got mad at me for walking in. I suppose I shouldn’t have assumed and I should have waited till I got the respond. Your ideas anybody? What would you if you were in my shoes?

Big kudos to this channel for sneaking some savoir vivre through teaching English. Just in case, to shed some light on some people who need be made aware of it: this is not a set of rules that applies to the UK only. This is a general set of savoir vivre rules that you should have acquired at home and school, combined. You don't burp, you don't make elderly people stand, you don't talk loud, etc. also in France, Romania, Sweden, Poland, Argentina, Canada, etc. Be embarrassed if you need to memorize these rules when you are over 20. Based on my observations made at workplaces, apparently kids need now dedicated tutorials to also be aware to: always clean up the countertop in a shared kitchen, always use toilet sink brush in a toilet (just leave it as if you've never been there), never put empty milk/juice/whetever carton box back into the fridge, never leave your cup of coffee at any random place, always put the utensils and lunch boxes into the dishwasher. Just grow up and think of others for a moment.

Hello Ms. Jade, I am Sharon from Vietnam, I have been following your channel for 4 years. My passion for British accent drives me here. Your accent is super nice, and amazing videos with so many helpful and interesting to learn. I am planning for England this December/ 2019, I want to experience life, culture, engage myself more with local people, not only travel for sight seeing. I hope u can make a video advise us on that, of some activities, program that visitors can join to understand about British culture; I heard of couch surfing too, can u share your knowledge on that. Thank you so much

all these manners are related to the persons not the country bcz it depends on how the individual is raised and how respectful he/she is to him/Herself and to others

I am an English person and this is a great video. 'thanks Jade' . You know what I find infuriating about English culture ' whinging'.to persistently complain in an irritating or peavish way. Because of people doing this I purchased an mp3 player and it really works.

These are all true in the US. About breastfeeding, it's considered impolite to publicly comment on it. I've always seen women drape a little blanket or something and keep on talking or whatever. Also, I don't recall hearing the term "French leave." Still considered rude, though. You don't need to say goodbye to all two-hundred at the party, but you do need to say goodbye to your host.

In America, I too adhere to these standards. It is very irritating how many people don't follow these basic rules of etiquette. I found that more people out west break many of these rules than those in the northeast (i.e., Michigan State vs. Arizona State; etc.).
