続きを読むマナーのヒント
Use both hands when giving or receiving items like money, business cards, or gifts to show respect.
Give or receive items with only one hand, especially when interacting with elders or superiors.
Remove your shoes before entering a private home, temple, or traditional 'sit-down' restaurant.
Wear your shoes inside onto the wooden floors or mats, as it is considered very disrespectful.
Wait for the eldest person at the table to pick up their utensils or start eating before you begin.
Start eating your meal or drinking before the elders at the table have started.
Offer a slight bow when greeting someone or saying thank you to demonstrate politeness.
Make intense, prolonged eye contact during a bow, as it can be perceived as confrontational.
