It's no secret that with representatives of different nationalities you should behave according to the culture of their country. As the saying goes in Russia: "What's good for the Russian is good for the German is death" No, this is not to say that the influence of one culture on another different culture will have a deleterious effect on the people of the other culture. On the contrary, people learn a lot of interesting things by sharing experience, knowledge and of course culture. Thanks to this article you can find the answer to the question: How to deal with Russians ?
Enjoy your reading!
1. Most Russian people are unsociable. If you approach a Russian passerby just to talk, don't be surprised if they ignore you and pass you by. But, if it comes to help, Russian people will definitely help you, for example, to find your way around
2. Russian people don't just smile. This is due to the fact that, in Russian culture, there is a saying: "Laughter without reason is a sign of stupidity". If you smile for no reason in the company of a Russian person, he will hardly be able to understand the reason for your smile. But if you have a good sense of humor, you will definitely be able to cause a sincere Russian smile.
3. Russian people are very superstitious. A Russian will find an omen for every occasion. Forgot something? Go back and show your tongue in the mirror. Does your palm itch? It must be money.
4. Russian people honor elderly people very much. If an elderly person enters the bus, be sure to give him a seat. Otherwise, you will meet the judgmental gaze of others.
5.Russian people like to drink alcohol. This is partly true, but not all Russians like alcohol. If you say that all Russians are alcoholics, you will be offended, because the culture of frequent and excessive drinking is condemned in Russia
I hope this post was helpful to you. Remember that if you want to make friends with Russians, there should be a different approach for each person. All people are different!
