Now let’s see what’s happened in some countries. Australia Australia is known for its friendliness, informality and lack of manners. At a trade show, T-shirts, ties, or a pin may be appropriate mementos. Anything more than these types of gifts could cause embarrassment(尴尬). Greece The most common form of showing appreciation in Greece is probably an evening’s entertainment. If you are invited to a Greek home, flowers or a cake for the hostess is an appropriate gift. Germany A West Virginian executive(主管), visiting Germany for the first time, was invited to the home of his largest customer. He decided to bring the hostess a bouquet of flowers. He selected a dozen red roses. Oh! Terrible mistake! Flowers are often taken to a hostess of a dinner party at her home, but there are three taboos to remember. (1)Red roses stand for a romantic interest. (2) An even number of flowers stand for bad luck, as does the number thirteen. (3)Always unwrap the flowers before presenting them. This West Virginian was making what amounted to a pass at his customer’s wife. Italy When you are invited to a person’s home for dinner, it might be nice to bring flowers or a box of chocolates for the hostess, and in Italy never send chrysanthemums(菊花), since they suggest death.
