    I definately love cultural lesson like that, some impolite some is okay to ask. Your explaination is crystal clear, don't ask private questions to trangers and to people we aren't close with and don't ask this question too: when are you going to leave from here? To people we don't know well, it's none of our buessness when people will leave from certain houses or places, oh ya my request has been granted yay.😁

    Thanks Bob, learned a lot of interesting knowledge. In Asia, especially in East Asia, if you don’t ask someone’s age, you can’t tell whether someone is your elder, which determines whether you should use honorific words for elders. If you don’t use honorific words, it will actually be considered rude . I think this is probably the difference between Eastern and Western cultures.

    Asking how much it costs is considered okay just the place where I live. Not all Japan. When I moved here, I used to be shocked that everyone asked " Hey, How much is it?" "Was it expensive?" But they're just showing curiosity and also they're wanting to tell a price when they buy something. They love chatting about the stuff if it's a real bang for our buck. Funny culture, heh ? I got used to it though 🤣 Thanks!!

    I think it's a normal question to ask someone "How much did you pay for that?". We can ask that question when we are interested in what someone's bought and we are going to buy something like that. For example: car or mobile phone.
    I have always had problem with gaining weight so I would be happy to hear "Have you gained some weight?" 😁
    My family is never mad at me when I ask some of these questions 🙂 it's better to talk and ask questions than avoid conversation.
    The more questions we ask the better we know others.
    We shouldn't just talk to each other only about pleasan things 🙂
    Thanks for your lessons so much 😊😊

    • @LearnEnglishwithBobtheCanadian
      @LearnEnglishwithBobtheCanadian  ปีที่แล้ว +7

      There is certainly a situational element to most of these. There are even alternate, nicer questions. For instance, I wouldn't ask some how much they paid for something, but I might ask if they bought it on sale or if they got a deal. 😎🌼🐦

    This was very informative and interesting ! Thank you Bob !
    In my country (Georgia), we do ask those questions and it's not considered to be impolite !
    What is considered to be impolite or actually even unkind in Georgia 🇬🇪 is leaving somebody on the street without any attention when they fall or trip or are being bullied... (I live in Europe for 20 years and you were supposed not to bother with to the troubles of other people on the streets... which I always found incomprehensible... but every country has its rules and cultural differences !
    Anyway, thank you again for this cultural lesson ! Would be delighted to hear more about the Canadian culture and traditions !

      Yes, that happens here too. Older people sometimes forget to be polite and ask very direct questions. 😎🐝🏀

    Funny : In Germany there are the same questions we never ask, even good friends or members of our own family. Only in very special and close relationships we dare to ask but with the feeling of overcoming.
    Although there are people who ask straight out. These are suggestive of being without distance to others or being inpolite/insensitive/rude.
    (Sorry for my rusty english. I'm working on it.)

      Was about to say the same. It's exactly those same questions that Germans don't ask. The US is a little bit more open to talk about money, I'd say. Also, I've had Koreans ask me about my age since age is what defines "pecking order" in their society, I've been told.

    Hello Bob, thank you for your so good explaining for us , for me)
    I just want to ask you : how it would be correct to answer when someone ask me : how are you? If I am not ok , why I must answer every time “I am good” ???

    • @LearnEnglishwithBobtheCanadian
      @LearnEnglishwithBobtheCanadian  ปีที่แล้ว

      We almost always say, "I'm good." even when things aren't good. We tell only people we trust about things in life that aren't going well. 😎🔨🕯
