※ 引述《greenH (康棣)》之铭言： : 这是一个满无聊又没啥内容的问题...(￣▽￣＃)﹏﹏ : 走在路上常常都会遇到一些外国人 : 只有两个人,互相迎面而来,他也不会刻意将眼神回避 : (一般我们和陌生人交会都习惯把眼睛看别的地方吧!) : 此时,我心里会想跟他们打声招呼 Saying hello to strangers is quite usual, except in big cities such as London, Paris, etc. It is a fun particularly in countryside and it is also a lifestyle. I used to do that to every people and they usually did the same for me. A smile from anybody can make my day. : 不过又觉得自己这样很蠢, 好像会吓到他们 @@ : 最後却都不敢做....然後把眼神往旁边晃去默默走过... : 我心里在想, 这个外国人该不会以为我们台湾人都很冷默吧 >"< Unless you label yourself as Taiwanese (or Made in Taiwan?), they won't know. That is OK if you prefer to keep quite. And they won't remember you and probably will forget you in the next few minutes or a few hours. : 你们如果在外面遇到外国人会很热情跟他打招呼吗? This is not a good question because it can cause misunderstanding. I don't think it is good to make it so clear between foreigners and local people on this topic. How can you know whether a stranger is a Taiwanese or not? Also, suppose you don't say hello to foreign strangers, would you greet to any Taiwanese strangers? I just tried to remember my first lesson to learn Chinese when I was a child. Usually, the first lessons to learn English, French,...etc are all about greeting, saying hello, good morning, etc. However, this seems not to have appeared in our primary school Chinese. What I can remember the first lesson was about 'to walk to the school'. The second lesson was about the national anthem... Where was a proper lesson to teach people to greet each other? Similarly for high school English. The first lesson was all about 'this and that'; 'this is a book.' 'that is a box.'... Of course there were somewhere 'Good morning.' appeared but not at the first lesson. I really cannot understand why they did not do that, because greeting is usually the easiest part; no grammar to remember and can be used immediately. Is anybody can give me more idea about this. In contrast, I have seen many children abroad who can greet in Chinese (although that can be the only chinese words the can speak). Being honest, if God allowed me to learn only an English word in my life, I would choose 'hi'. There are actually so many friendships begin from that. If you don't even want to say hello to a stranger, you probably will never got friendship from them. --
