45
Meeting and greeting Etiquette
In New Zealand, when people meet, they like saying “Good day!”. At the first meeting, people will shake hands with each other or raise oneself slightly to bow. At greeting, it is appropriate to call names at any time. Some greeting ways are not same as in China, you’d better use their usual ways.
46
Etiquette Invitation Usually it is the hostess who invite guests to have dinner at home. When you receive an invitation, you have to reply immediately. No matter what kind of party you are leaving, you should express gratitude to the hostess.
47
Etiquette Dining It’s unnecessary to put down the knife and fork during a talk, otherwise the hostess will probably consider that you have eaten up the course. Sitting in a chair, you should keep upright, instead of leaning against the back of the chair. At the dinning table, don’t clean your teeth, whether you use your finger or a toothpick or even your tongue.
48
Etiquette In public In the New Zealand’s stores, almost all the goods are marked with clear price and there is no custom of bargaining. In the theatre, people should wear their best clothes, that is, they often wear suits. Those who go to church usually bring money with them so as to donate, which is a routine at each church.
