12 Culture Shock 1 READING Learn to Speak the Language When you go to another country, you should learn to speak the language. This isn't something you can do with just a dictionary and a grammar book. Allow me to explain. Words don't always have their literal meaning. When I went to Japan for the first time, I knew that the Japanese word for "yes" is hai. I went to discuss an important business issue. At the end of the meeting, I summarized my plan and asked my Japanese colleague, "Do you agree?" He answered with hai. That night I called my boss and told him that the Japanese company was ready to go ahead with the plan. The next day I had to tell my boss that this wasn't true. It turns out that the Japanese often use hai to mean "I've heard you. I understand." Gestures are worse than words. They often have a meaning that is very different from the meaning you know. When I was in China, I saw people waving their hands at other people. They waved their hands the way I do when I want to tell someone to go away. But every time a Chinese person did this, the other person came nearer. Finally, a Chinese friend explained that this was the gesture for "come here." This experience didn't prepare me for the taxi in Bulgaria. When my plane arrived in Sofia, I was tired. So I was happy that a taxi was right there. "OK?" I asked, opening the door. The taxi driver moved his head up and down, so I jumped in. "Downtown, please. OK?” I said. The taxi driver nodded again, but nothing happened. Finally, I became angry and jumped out. Guess what? In Bulgaria moving your head up and down means "no" and shaking your head from side to side means "yes." Write T for True and F for False. 1. Words sometimes have more than one meaning. 2. In Japanese, hai always means “yes.” 3. Waving one's hand in China means “come here." 4. In Bulgaria, nodding the head up and down means "no." ம் 5. وزارة التعليم Ministry of Education 2024-1446 Shaking the head from side to side in Bulgaria means “I don't understand."
