What gifts do countries traditionally give when they meet?

Germany: Pay attention to packaging when giving gifts.

When giving gifts in Germany, we should pay special attention to whether the gifts are appropriate and whether the packaging is exquisite. Roses are specially given to lovers, so you must not give them casually. Germans like to be invited for an outing, but the host needs to make careful and thoughtful arrangements before departure.

Arab countries: No gifts for the first time.

Arabs don't give gifts when they meet for the first time, otherwise it will be regarded as bribery. According to Arab custom, secondhand goods and wine can't be given away; Especially not to give gifts to the wives of acquaintances who have business contacts. Not to mention asking about their families. When visiting an Arab home, you must never stare at something, so that the Arab host will definitely let you take it, or you will be despised in your heart.

France: No flowers.

In France, gifts are usually given at reunions. The choice of gifts should show a compliment to the wisdom of the French host. When invited to a French family for dinner, you should send some flowers that are not tied.

Latin America: No handkerchiefs, knives and scissors.

Now in Latin America, you can't give knives and scissors, otherwise it will be considered as the end of friendship. Handkerchiefs can't be used as gifts because they are associated with tears. Latin Americans like small household products made in America, such as kitchen utensils. In Latin American countries, goods with high tax are very popular, so it is best not to send luxury goods.

Japan: Gifts must be given, not necessarily useful.

Japanese people pay attention to etiquette and have the custom of giving gifts. But generally speaking, the recipient can send something that is useless to him, and the recipient can transfer it again. Japanese people like China's silk, famous wine, traditional Chinese medicine and some famous brands, but they are disgusted with things with designs of foxes and badgers, because foxes represent greed and badgers represent cunning. When you visit an ordinary family, you can only send 15 petals of chrysanthemums, and the royal badge has 16 petals of chrysanthemums.

England: I hate gifts with company logo.

The British pay attention to appearance. Generally, things that are not expensive for giving gifts, such as high-grade chocolate, famous wine and flowers, are also the favorite things for British people to receive gifts. The appropriate time to give gifts should be after dinner or after watching a play. Gifts marked with the company logo are generally not appreciated by the British. If the company gives gifts, it is best to give them in the name of the boss and the private person.

USA: Gift, open in person.

Generally speaking, Americans don't give gifts casually. Some people often seem a little embarrassed when they receive gifts. This is especially true if they happen to have nothing in return. But on holidays, birthdays, weddings or visiting patients, gifts are inevitable.

Americans like to give gifts to each other at Christmas. At Christmas, naive children will be in high spirits because they receive all kinds of novel toys, thinking that they are gifts from Santa Claus. Adults often give each other books, stationery, chocolate candy or bonsai. Gifts should be wrapped in floral paper and tied with ribbons. According to American tradition, there is a "White Christmas" a few days before Christmas. People wrap presents with white paper and give them to the poor nearby.

Besides, Americans think the singular is auspicious. Sometimes I don't feel humble if I only send three pears, which is different from China people who pay attention to pairs. When Americans receive gifts, they must immediately open them, enjoy or taste them in front of the giver, and immediately thank the giver. Gift packaging is more exquisite, the appearance is exquisite and gorgeous, but it is not necessarily too expensive inside. Sometimes, when the delicate package with three layers inside and three layers outside is opened, only a few chocolates are exposed.

Russia: Never send money.

Russians are very particular about giving and receiving gifts. Russians taboo others to send money, and think that sending money is an insult to personality. But they love foreign goods very much. Foreign candy, cigarettes, wine and clothes are all good gifts. If you send flowers, send a single one, not a double one. In their view, even numbers are unlucky.

Holland: Food, send less.

In the Netherlands, most people are used to eating cold food, avoiding sending meals when giving gifts, and wrapping gifts with paper products. Don't be too attentive to the hostess when visiting Dutch families. When men and women go upstairs, their behavior is just the opposite of that in most countries: men are in the front and women are in the back.
