 PEOPLE AND THEIR DIFFERENT WAYS OF EXPRESSING THEMSELVES

When people meet for the first time, they usually make formal greetings. some people

shake hands with a strong grip. others give hugs and kisses on the cheeks. there are also

people who only move an eyebrow or head.

Nowadays young people have different ways of expressing themselves and body

language, they have changed it to give it another meaning. for example, thumbs up mean

something is good or excellent. but if they raise another finger, they can be rude gestures.

Also, the thumb down is related to some bad action, taking mockery by making bad

gestures, they even generate quarrels and conflicts.

When people do not know each other, they do not make eye contact and maintain a safe

distance but there are places where it is not possible because they are limited space and

there is an agglomeration of people, this causes small conflicts or disagreements. On the

contrary, when people are family and friends, they are more friendly, kind, and affectionate,

allowing a healthy coexistence.

All of this varies depending on everyone's culture. There are different ways to greet,

speak and behave, we are unique and different that makes us particular to others. sometimes

the customs are agreed to have a better coexistence in a society in which several similar

qualities are adapted.
