Cultural differences in everyday conversations

Cultural differences on politeness between western and Chinese can be

found in many aspects of daily communication, including addressing,

greeting and parting, compliments, apologies, thanks, etc.

investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of

foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication.

1 American Posturing on China is Short-sighted.

Suspicion of Chinese intension is undermining a rational approach to doing business with

China. CNOOC’s Dollars 18.5bn(Pounds 10.6bn) all-cash offer for Unocal, the US oil company,

has prompted concerns from some business leaders and politicians in power. Yet its offer is clearly

good news for shareholders—since it is more generous from a financial point of view than
