Good morning 🌞☀️😃

How to say hello in your target language

?

Did you know some countries say hello without touching or even saying hello?

In India, say "Namaste", bring your palms together , fingers up, and over your heart. It means “I bow to the divine in you”

Sticking out your tongue in Tibet is a traditional greeting and a sign of respect.

Bow in Cambodia, India, Japan, Laos, and Thailand. Many cultures use prayer hands when they bow but Japan does not.

Argentina, Chile, Peru, Mexico, São Paulo, Colombia, Spain, Portugal, Québec, Paraguay, Italy, the Philippines, France, Russia, Ukraine, are some of the countries that say hello with an air kiss.

Clap your hands in Zimbabwe and Mozambique.

Perform a ceremonial jumping dance in Kenya

In Micronesia, raise your eyebrows.

    If a Turk put his right hand on his chest and slightly bow his head, it means greetings through the heart.
