If you are visiting England, you will notice that the English have many customs (风俗) and traditions (传统) that are different from those in China. Here’s a guide to visiting England. It provides help for anyone who visit England for the first time.

Standing in the queue

English people like to form queues. They think it is the fair way to behave. People wait in a queue in shops or at bus stops. People will think you are rude if you don’t join the queue.

Please, Thank you, Excuse me and Sorry

It is good manners to say “Please” and “Thank you”. If someone is in your way, say “Excuse me” and they will move. If you bump into someone or you are in their way, say “Sorry”. They will probably say sorry, too, even if it was your mistake. Saying sorry does not always mean you are wrong. Sometimes it is a polite thing to say.

Meeting a new person

When people meet for the first time, the usual custom is to shake hands. The next time you meet that person, you can just say hello. English people don’t usually hug or kiss if they don’t know each other really well.

Talking to people

English people find it difficult to start conversations with strangers. If you are on buses or trains, they usually sit as far away from other people as possible. If you want to start a conversation, the topic that English people are always happy to talk about is the weather. So you need to be able to say “Isn’t it warm (sunny/windy/wet/foggy) today?” or “Do you think it’s going to rain/clear up?” Avoid topics such as politics, religion or how much people earn!

Just behave politely. Remember: When you are in England, just do as the English people do!
