PROJECT INTERMEDIATE 3

Hable sobre tres costumbres y tradiciones extrañas en todo el mundo y explique a sus
compañeros los comportamientos culturalmente apropiados que necesitan saber si desean
visitar esos lugares algún día.

1. MARRUECOS.

One of the customs of Morocco is bargaining

When you visit markets, stores and other places to purchase souvenirs and crafts, it is common
to bargain prices.

Not only is it a Moroccan custom, but it is sometimes necessary due to the high prices of
certain items. It is common to negotiate prices because the products do not have the price
marked, waiting for people to start negotiating.

In addition, in the Arab culture it is a very common social act, in fact, if the price raised by the
seller is accepted at first sight, the seller may get angry.

The usual thing is to propose a much lower price and, from that base, to agree on a more
balanced price that benefits both parties.

Before traveling to this country, you must know the culturally appropriate behaviors.

1.One of the customs of Morocco is to take off your shoes when entering a house. It is better
to ask the owner of the house if you have to take off your shoes, since Moroccan houses are
often full of carpets and it can be annoying to step on them with our shoes.

it is important to be polite with this culture

2. Do not give money to beggar children because it is inappropriate behavior, as it is a way to

encourage them to miss school and beg in the streets

2. In India, newborns are usually thrown from a height of 15 meters, because it is believed that
this will bring them prosperity and intelligence.

In the Kayan tribe, Thailand, women wear hoops around their necks to lengthen it more and
more. This type of appearance is considered beautiful and elegant although many people fail
to understand.

Marruecos

negociar

Cuando visita mercados, tiendas y otros lugares para comprar recuerdos y artesanías, es
común negociar precios.

No solo es una costumbre marroquí, sino que a veces es necesaria debido a los altos precios de
ciertos artículos. Es común negociar precios porque los productos no tienen el precio marcado,
esperando que las personas comiencen a negociar

Además, en la cultura árabe es un acto social muy común, de hecho, si el precio elevado por el
vendedor se acepta a primera vista, el vendedor puede enojarse.

Lo habitual es proponer un precio mucho más bajo y, desde esa base, acordar un precio más
equilibrado que beneficie a ambas partes.
