In Japan, you have to take off your shoes before entering a house.
返信削除At dinner, you mustn't eat by hands, you should use chopsticks, a folk, or a spoon.
You will say "Itadakimasu" when you start eating.
While you are eating, you can enjoy conversations, but it is impolite to talk with your mouse filled with food.
When you finish eating, it is good to tell the family "Gochisousamadeshita".
Very good writing.
削除Don't you know that Vietnamese people also use chopsticks?
Hi, I have two advice for you.
返信削除First, when you get into the boss’ s house you may have to take off your shoes.
In Japan it is impolite to get into house with wearing the shoes.
Next, if you eat something in a bowl you have to pick up them.
It’s the custom which seen in only Japan.
But it’s very important manner in Japan.
#1 two pieces of advice
削除Sound advice.
削除#3 => with your shoes on
#4 => pick it up
It's good idea to bring some gifts from your country. I think foods is really convenient for Japanese people. That means Japanese people likes to eat variety of foods from different country and they often want you to explain what kind of food is it. Because Japanese people is kind of cautious so they always want to know what the thing is. So Don't forget to explain your gifts clearly.

You should learn Japanese manners before you go there as they are quite different from the ones in other countries.
返信削除First of all, Japansese people eat meals with chopsticks. You should master how to use chopsticks or ask forks instead of chopsticks if you can’t use them.
And remember not to use hand to eat because it is a very impolite behavior in Japan. Also, putting chopsticks on a plate isn’t polite, so make sure to put them on a table.
