• In Arab countries and some European countries like France, people will attach face to face to show greeting. One person attach to another’s face with right hand on the opposite person’s left shoulder and left hand embracing his or her waist. If the relationship of the two people is intimate enough, they will make a sound of kissing at the same time.

• Different culture’s has its own way to greet other people, and they are quite various. Some type of greeting maybe even confuse a person belonging to another culture, or he or her thinks it’s rude. Sometimes, although different cultures have the same way to express, they attach to it different meanings. For example, raising your right hand is quite common to say hello when you encounter a friend or a stranger, but in Africa, it means that you have no weapon in your right hand, it’s a symbol of peace. So we can see long history and different geography condition make this happened.
