The three
differences in greetings between Denver and Kenya are
showing respect, addressing elders and handshakes. They both show respect. When
greeting in Denver ,
give eye to eye contact. It shows that we are listening to each other. In Kenya , they
lower their eyes when they’re greeting an elder. To show respect to their
elders. They address their elders differently. In Denver ,
we refer to elders as Mr. or Mrs. But; children in Kenya refer to all adults as “Aunt”
or “Uncle.” Although we both give out handshakes, it’s done in different ways. Denver gives out firm
handshakes and men don’t wait for women to extend hand first. However, Kenya gives
handshake but, a man waits for the women to extend hand first. This is most
interesting because most countries don’t wait for women first. In closing, here
are some differences they do when greeting in
their countries.
