  • Today, we're going to talk about unwritten rules in the US. In American culture, there are a lot of rules that people don't tell you about.

    Thank you for your video, Marina. I've been through similar cultural shocks living in Brazil (I'm from Argentina). Here small talks and people smiling all the time is the rule too. But it's interesting the way you approach the situation, instead of saying "they are false", you say "they want to establish a friendly environment", that's a nice way to see it.

    Hi Marina, as an American, it's so interesting to hear you talk about things that are so seemingly normal, being highlighted as a cultural phenomenon. Regarding parties, I agree with others who say that being late depends on the people and the region. It can be very rude to be late, especially if your invitation states that dinner will be served at a specific time. And never be late for work! Anyway, thanks for sharing your insights!

    Distance between people in line is not a Covid behavior. There is something called “personal space” that is different in European countries than in the U.S. In most European countries the personal space between people in public is closer than the personal space in the U.S. Whether in conversation or just standing and waiting. Europeans will stand very close and that makes Americans a little nervous and they’ll tend to back away and enlarged the personal space. (A study I had to do for my sociology degree.)

    • @js777.
      @js777. ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Yes exactly this is not a covid behaviour. I'm from europe and when i moved here this was the first weird thing for me that people feel disturbed when you stand close to them. For them this is normal but for us this is so unfriendly and such a being cold person. I think the reason is; people feel in danger, because of the safety problems here.

      @@js777. …not really anything to do with current safety problems. The American personal space comfort zone has been like this for at least 75 years. It has changed over time. When my grandparents came to the US from Italy and Lithuania around 1900, people stood much closer. Over the decades the distance has become enlarged.

    I think the punctuality thing depends on what region of America you’re in. In the northern south (that’s what I like to call it), my dad always taught me that to be early is to be on time and to be on time is to be late. If you arrive early to a social gathering, as long as you’re not putting pressure on the host, you can always help set up. California is definitely bizarre if the next guest at that party didn’t show up until an hour after the agreed upon time.
