It's been so interesting discussing cultural differences. I'm curious, John, what's a daily custom in your country that might seem unusual to outsiders?

That's a good question, Emily. I'd say taking off your shoes immediately when entering someone's home is a big one. It's considered quite rude not to, even if they say it's fine.
English
这是个好问题，艾米丽。我会说一进别人家门就脱鞋是个大事。如果没脱，即使主人说没关系，也会被认为是非常不礼貌的。

Ah, yes! We do that in some homes too, but it's not a universal rule. What about social etiquette around meals? For instance, do you typically share dishes or have individual plates?
English
啊，是的！我们有些家庭也会那样做，但这不是普遍的规矩。那用餐礼仪呢？比如，你们通常是分享菜肴还是每人一份？

Definitely sharing. It's very common to have multiple communal dishes in the center of the table, and everyone helps themselves. It's seen as a way to bond and enjoy the meal together.
English
肯定分享。把多道公共菜肴放在餐桌中央，然后大家自己取用，这非常普遍。这被视为一种增进感情、一起享受美食的方式。

That sounds lovely and very communal. In my country, while we might share appetizers, main courses are usually individual. It highlights that difference in collective vs. individualistic cultures.
English
那听起来很可爱，很有集体感。在我们国家，虽然我们可能会分享开胃菜，但主菜通常是每人一份。这凸显了集体主义与个人主义文化之间的差异。

Exactly. And a peculiar tradition for us is 'siesta' in some regions, where shops close for a few hours in the afternoon for a break. It's perplexing to tourists but a part of life for locals.
English
没错。我们这里还有一个独特的传统，就是某些地区的“午休时间”，下午商店会关门几个小时休息。对游客来说这可能很费解，但对当地人来说却是生活的一部分。

I've heard about siesta! It sounds like a great way to avoid the hottest part of the day and recharge. We tend to power through the entire workday, often with just a short lunch break.
English
我听说过午休！这听起来是避开一天中最热的时候并充电的好办法。我们倾向于整个工作日都不休息，通常只有一个很短的午餐时间。
