I need a paper on Japanese etiquette.
I took a course in business etiquette this semester. At the end of the semester, the teacher stated that I would write a paper on etiquette as a standard for grade evaluation. The scope of the paper revolves around etiquette. I remember the teacher once talked about Japanese etiquette in class. Recently, I am very interested in Japanese culture. I checked the etiquette and customs in Japan on the Internet, and I want to introduce them here and learn by myself. In addition, I conclude that Japan is a country that pays great attention to etiquette. There is a habit of sending greeting cards to each other on holidays. Every major festival or important choice, the Japanese will go to the shrine to worship, and even have children, weddings and funerals. In addition to holidays, there are many traditional folk festivals with strong local customs in Japan. "Saving face" is the Japanese nature. It is a record of a person's honor and a source of self-confidence, which will strongly affect everything of the Japanese. So when you get along with the Japanese, always remember to give each other face. The Japanese emphasize morality and kindness. In their view, "one can never repay one ten thousandth of kindness". Gratitude is a very common and important thing for them. Japanese people usually bow when they meet. Generally, people bow to each other at 30 degrees and 45 degrees, and the depth of bowing and bending is different, indicating different meanings. The lowest and most polite bow is called "the most salute". When a man bows, his hands naturally hang down on both sides of his clothes and trousers; When showing respect for each other, people usually put their left hand on their right hand and bow in front of it, especially women. The Japanese choose some meaningful years to celebrate the birthday of the elderly. For example, 6 1 year-old means "hijri", and 60 years later it means 1 year-old, rejuvenating; 7O years old is "ancient"; 77 years old is "Happy Birthday"; 88 years old is "Mi Shou", and the Chinese character "Mi" can be disassembled to become 88; The 99-year-old is called "hundred years old" because the word "white" has a horizontal line, making it "hundred". Most Japanese believe in Shinto and Buddhism. They don't like purple and think it is a sad color. Most taboo green, think green is an ominous color. It is also taboo for three people to "take pictures" together. They think it is an unfortunate omen to be caught between people on the left and right. Japanese taboo lotus, think lotus is a funeral flower. Camellia and pale yellow and white flowers are forbidden when visiting patients. Japanese people are reluctant to accept things or gifts with chrysanthemums or chrysanthemum patterns, because it is a symbol of the royal family. Japanese people like pine, bamboo, plum, duck, turtle and so on. ......
