点头和摇头
阿拉伯地区、印度、阿尔巴尼亚等地方就是点头为NO，摇头为YES
而在中国点头为YES，摇头NO。在很多国家,点头是肯定,摇头是否定,但是在保加利亚,希腊的一些地方,和伊朗,却是点头否定,摇头肯定
在用手势表示数字时，中国伸出食指表示“1”，欧美人则伸出大拇指表示“1”；中国人伸出食指和中指表示“2”，欧美人伸出大拇指和食指表示“2”，并依次伸出中指、无名指和小拇指表示“3”、“4”、“5”。在中国伸出食指指节前屈表示“9”，日本人却用这个手势表示“偷窃”。中国人表示“10”的手势是将右手握成拳头，在英美等国则表示“祝好运”。
手势“OK”在印度，表示“正确”；在泰国，表示“没问题”；在日本、缅甸、韩国，表示“金钱”；在法国，表示“微不足道”或“一钱不值”；在巴西、希腊和意大利的撒丁岛，表示这是一种令人厌恶的污秽手势；在马耳他，则是一句无声而恶毒的骂人语。 OK手势。拇指、食指相接成环形，其余三指伸直，掌心向外。OK手势源于美国，在美国表示“同意”、“顺利”、“很好”的意思；而法国表示“零”或“毫无价值”；在泰国它表示“没问题”，在巴西是表示粗俗下流。
中国人表示赞赏之意，常常翘直大拇指，其余四指蜷曲；跷起小拇指则表示蔑视。日本人则用大拇指表示“老爷子”，用小拇指表示“情人”。在英国，翘起大拇指是拦路要求搭车的意思。在英美等国，以“V”字形手势表示“胜利”、“成功”；在亚非国家，“V”字形手势一般表示两件事或两个东西。 V形手势。这种手势是二战时的英国首相丘吉尔首先使用的，现在已传遍世界，是表示“胜利”。如果掌心向内，就变成骂人的手势了。
1.盯着别人的眼睛看,在一些国家是表示对对方感兴趣,但在另一些国家,是被认为无理的,对别人不尊重.
3.美国的手势__竖起大拇指,在美国表示"很好""干得不错",但是在尼日利亚,这个手势很粗鲁但是在日本和德国,它意味着"第一".
    翘起大拇指，一般都表示顺利或夸奖别人。但也有很多例外，在美国和欧洲部分地区，表示要搭车，在德国表示数字“1”，在日本表示“5”，在澳大利亚就表示骂人“他妈的”。与别人谈话时将拇指翘起来反向指向第三者，即以拇指指腹的反面指向除交谈对象外的另一人，是对第三者的嘲讽。
    掌心向下的招手动作，在中国主要是招呼别人过来，在美国是叫狗过来。
     
   
    举手致意。它也叫挥手致意。用来向他人表示问候、致敬、感谢。当你看见熟悉的人，又无暇分身的时候，就举手致意，可以立即消除对方的被冷落感。要掌心向外，面对对方，指尖朝向上方。千万不要忘记伸开手掌。               
    与人握手。在见面之初、告别之际、慰问他人、表示感激、略表歉意等时候，往往会以手和他人相握。一是要注意先后顺序。握手时，双方伸出手来的标准的先后顺序应为“尊者在先”。即地位高者先伸手，地位低者后伸手。如果是服务人员通常不要主动伸手和服务对象相握。和人握手时，一般握上3到5秒钟就行了。通常，应该用右手和人相握。左手不宜使用，双手相握也不必常用。messages什么意思
                   
    双手抱头。很多人喜欢用单手或双手抱在脑后，这一体态的本意，也是放松。在别人面前特别是给人服务的时候这么做的话，就给人一种目中无人的感觉。
                   
    摆弄手指。反复摆弄自己的手指，要么活动关节，要么捻响，要么攥着拳头，或是手指动来动去，往往会给人一种无聊的感觉，让人难以接受。
                   
    手插口袋。在工作中，通常不允许把一只手或双手插在口袋里的。这种表现，会让人觉得你在工作上不尽力，忙里偷闲。
                   
                   
    二是手势宜少不宜多。
                   
    手势宜少不宜多。多余的手势，会给人留下装腔作势、缺乏涵养的感觉。
                   
    三是要避免出现的手势。
                   
    在交际活动时，有些手势会让人反感，严重影响形象。比如当众搔头皮、掏耳朵、抠鼻子、咬指甲、手指在桌上乱写乱画等。
Pat on the Head
In America, you may pat a younger person on the head or ruffle their hair to indicate encouragement or affection. However, in cultures where Buddhism and Hinduism are predominant, the gesture may be offensive. In Buddhist and Hindu faiths, the head is typically viewed as the spirit's place of residence.
Pat on the Back
You may be accustomed to patting your teammates on the back after successfully completi
ng a task. Other times, you may simply use the gesture to indicate neighborly affection. Other cultures may take this action as intrusive or aggressive.
Smiling
While smiling is a universally acknowledged gesture, a smile may convey different meanings. For example, in addition to openness, a smile can convey embarrassment or confusion. In some cultures, it is normal to reserve a smile for friends or family, rather than passing strangers.
Thumbs-Up
A thumbs-up gesture may send a positive message in America, but this is not the case worldwide. For example, in some Middle Eastern cultures, the gesture has the same implications as raising your middle finger in America. Similarly, the "ok" gesture, formed by bringing the tip of your index finger to the top of your thumb, can be interpreted as obscene in Brazil and Germany.
Fingers in a "V"
In America, holding your index and middle fingers out in the shape of a "V" is a sign of peace meant to imply friendliness; it could also be interpreted as a sign of victory. However, if you're overseas, be sure to present this sign with your palm facing outward. If your palm is inward, the gesture can serve as an insult in countries such as Australia, New Zealand and Ireland.
Finger Beckoning
Beckoning a person by curling your index finger is generally acceptable in America, although, depending on the context, it may be a rude form of summons. In some areas, such as the Philippines, you should only use this gesture when beckoning a dog.
Although we may not realize it when we talk with others we make ourselves understood not only by words. We send messages to the people around us also by expressions and body movements.we call it "body language ",which is a kind of communication,noverbal commun
ication.A smile and handshake show welcome ,Waving one's hand is to say"goodbye", nodding the head means agreement,while shaking it means disgreement .Putting up a hand means"May I ask a question?". Kissing means"love". Waving one's arms show happiness.These gestures are accepted both by Chinese and Americans as having the same meanings.
Because culture influences communication.Different country has different culture.So the way people in different countries communicate is different too.FOR EXAMPLE, Arab man often greet by kissing on both cheeks.In Japan men greet by bowing .In the Unite States, people shake hands to show"their greeting". And the gesture of putting a hand on a person' neck is different for Chinese and Americans. For Chinese,it is to say"someone will be killed". For Americans, it shows"I'm full” .And in Thailand, If you want to signal a person to come near, you should move the fingers back and forth with palm down.But in the United States, you ask someone to come by holding the palm up and moving the fingers towards our body. And crossing one's legs in the United States is a sign of being relaxed. But in Korea , it's not allowed. In Chinese,people hand everything with both hands to show their r
espect,but for Muslims,they think the left hand is unclean and do not eat or pass something with it.
