German Social Manners Part 1
posted 2 years ago
It’s always good to know basic social manners when you’re visiting a country for the first time. That’s why I’d like to dedicate a couple of posts to German social manners :)
Part 1: SHAKING HANDS
Shaking hands is the most common form of greeting someone in Germany, especially when you meet someone for the first time and introduce yourself. During business meetings and also some social meetings it’s expected that you shake hands to say both hello and goodbye. If you refuse to shake hands with somebody who offers it to you, you’ll be considered impolite and rude.
