高冷的英国人与不拘小节的美国人


一直以来,英美两个大国都有各种对焦与碰撞。很多人对英美两国人都比较模糊,相同的肤色,相同的语言,可毕竟还是一方水土养一方人,下面小编与大家分享一下英美两国的一些文化差异,希望大家喜欢。

高冷的英国人与不拘小节的美国人


1. When someone knocks into you

被撞后什么反应?

If someone bumps into an American, thevictim will most likely look the accidental aggressor in the face and expect anapology. If, however, the victim happens to be British, chances are that thevictim will say “sorry” before the other can make his or her own apology.


如果被撞的是美国人,他们大都会直视冒失者,希望对方道歉。而相反,如果被撞的碰巧是英国人,他们则很可能会在撞人者开口道歉之前先说“对不起”。

2. When you get dressed for dinner

晚宴穿什么?

Britons don’t all change into evening dressfor supper like what you may have seen in popular TV shows like Downton Abbey.But they do tend to make an effort when going out for dinner somewhere nice.Americans, however, will probably wear a casual shirt to a fancy eatery.


享用晚餐时,英国人虽然不会像热门英剧《唐顿庄园》中那样人人身着晚礼服,但在去高级餐厅就餐时也会在穿着上颇下一番功夫。而美国人则可能穿一件休闲衬衫就出入高级餐馆。

3. When you don’t finish your food

饭菜没吃完时怎么办?

Britons wouldn’t think to take theleftovers home when dining out at a restaurant. They think the food is somehow“tainted” once they’ve poked at it with a knife and fork. In the US, wrappingit up to take home is a standard practice.


外出就餐时,英国人不会将剩饭剩菜打包带走,因为在他们看来食物一旦被刀叉“染指”后便被“玷污”了。然而对美国人而言,打包剩菜则是一种惯例。


4. When you get into a taxi

乘出租车时什么表现?

Britons will give the cab driver anaddress, then assume that’s it for the interaction until it’s time to pay. Evenif they’re being taken in a roundabout way, they’re very unlikely to sayanything. In the US, however, most passengers think nothing of telling the driverwhat route to take after telling him or her the destination.


英国人在告诉司机目的地之后就会秉承全程“零交流”的原则,直至下车付钱才开口。甚至在看见司机绕路时,他们也会一言不发。而美国人则恰恰相反,大多数乘客都会在告诉司机目的地后,自己指挥行车路线;并且觉得这并无不妥。


原来美国人与英国人之间的差距那么大的哦,赴美产子选择在美国恩宠月子中心,虽然基本不用与外国人交流,可毕竟是在美国哦,粑粑麻麻们不妨也了解一下。‍
