People are supposed to shake hands in many countries．But every country has its own custom of shaking hands, so you need to know something about another country's handshaking custom before you visit it．
Here are some of the most usual handshaking customs around the world：
★In England you shake hands whenever you meet someone, even if you know them well．
★Russians shake hands often．However, they never shake hands while wearing gloves．
★A strong handshake and holding hands closely are signs of welcome in South Africa．
★Men in Arabian cultures prefer a long handshake．At the same time, they will say a few words to greet the other person．
★The French always shake hands in business meetings．In social situations, they kiss each other on the face．
★People in India and Pakistan shake hands by holding your hand in both their hands．
It is considered impolite to refuse to shake hands with someone．But don't worry if someone refuses to shake hands with you, because there may be some special reasons．For example, maybe they have a cold or don't feel very well．A person that is unable to shake hands should always say sorry and explain for it so that the other person does not feel unhappy．
