France 法國(guó)

Newspapers have been filled with advice over how to replace handshaking – a daily formality for the French at work and kissing on the cheek, a regular greeting habit in France even between people who have only just met.

關(guān)于如何取代握手和貼面，法國(guó)的報(bào)紙上有多種建議。在法國(guó)，握手是職場(chǎng)的日常禮節(jié)，親吻臉頰是一種常規(guī)的問(wèn)候習(xí)慣，即使是在初識(shí)的人們之間也是如此。

被媒體廣泛引用的生活方式專家菲利普·利希特弗斯堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為，在人類歷史上，握手是相對(duì)較晚才發(fā)展起來(lái)的問(wèn)候形式，始于中世紀(jì)。

He says simply looking into a person’s eyes can suffice as a greeting.

他說(shuō)，(疫情期間)只要看看對(duì)方的眼睛就足以表示問(wèn)候。
