1. Indians use shaking their heads to express approval and nodding to express disagreement. People use their hands to grasp their ears to express self-blame; the action of summoning someone is to point their palms to the hem, but not with only one finger; when pointing to people, use the whole palm, not one or two fingers.

2. Use your right hand to hold food, gifts and tea, not your left hand or both hands. When eating, Hindus are most taboo to take food in the same container. They also do not eat food that has been touched by others, and even tea cups that have been washed by others should be washed again before use. Like to eat in separate meals, pay attention to the crispy dishes, generally do not like too salty taste, prefer spicy taste. The staple food is mainly rice, and I am also interested in the cakes in pasta.

3. When Indians meet, they should hand out English famous films. English is the language of business in India. When the host and guest meet, they should greet each other with their hands folded over their chests. “Namassti” (Sanskrit: “nod to you”, now greetings or blessings) is read in the mouth. The younger generation bends over and touches the feet of the elders during salutations to show respect for the elders. Men cannot shake hands with women. Many housewives are taboo to meet strange men and do not easily contact outsiders. But if you invite men to participate in real social activities, they should be asked to come with their wives. Men and women in general relationships cannot talk alone.

4. When visiting an Indian temple or family, you must take off your shoes when you enter the door. When greeting distinguished guests, the host often presents a wreath and puts it around the guest’s neck. The size and length of the wreath depend on the identity of the guest. The wreath offered to the VIP is thick and long, exceeding the knee. The wreath for the average guest is only to the chest. The wife sends her husband away from home. The highest etiquette is to touch the heels and kiss the feet. When visiting an Indian family, you can bring fruits and sweets as gifts, or give gifts to the host’s children.

5. Hands together: It is the body language that accompanies “Namosdai”. Generally, the hands are folded on the chest, or the hands are raised to signal. When the hands are empty, greet them together; if you hold something, raise your right hand to salute, and never raise your left hand. There is also attention to the height of the joint. For the elderly, it is advisable to be tall, with both hands at least level with the forehead; for the younger generation, it is advisable to be low, which can be on the chest; for the average generation, it is advisable to be flat, with both hands between the chest and the lower chin.

6. Hugs: It is also a common gift. If we meet again after a long absence, or go on a long trip, or something big happens, we should hug. When hugging, put both hands on each other’s shoulders, first tilt the head to the left, press the chest, then tilt the head to the right, and then press the chest. Sometimes, touch each other’s backs and hug each other to show special intimacy.
