Cultural tips: when to say thank you
WHEN TO SAY
THANK YOUIt is a Western custom to say ‘thank you’ in all kinds of situations,
so while it may seem gracious to say ‘thank you’ when you receive
a compliment, in Chinese culture this might actually be considered
rude. There is another Chinese phrase that is used to accept
compliments graciously which we will teach you in an upcoming
lesson. In the meantime, Think of the phrase ‘xie xie’ as a ‘thank
you’ for something tangible or for direct actions and gestures.
Give yourself an unfair advantage in the Asian Century.
