全球文化：在这12个国家不要做的事

Don't tip anyone: "Tipping is just not part of the culture. Don't even leave the small change. People will come running after you with it."
不要给人小费：“日本文化中没有小费这个惯例。也不要留下零钱，不然日本人会追着还给你。”

Don't wear your shoes in someone's house: "If you see other people taking their shoes off, do the same. (Note: there's a small area right inside the entrance called a 'genkan' which is usually one level below the rest of the house, where you take off your shoes. You don't take them off outside the house!)"
进别人家时不可以穿鞋：“如果你看到其他人脱鞋，那你也照做吧。”（注意：屋子门口有一小块地方叫“玄关”，通常比其他地方要低一些，是用来脱鞋子的。鞋子不必脱在外面。）

Don't hug people you just met: "Most people don't like it, especially older folk."
不要拥抱刚认识的人：“大部分人都不喜欢拥抱，尤其是老人。”

Don't stand on the wrong side of the escalator: "In Tokyo you stand on the left. In Osaka you stand on the right. Follow what other people are doing."
电动扶梯上不要站错边：“在东京要站在电动扶梯的左边，在大阪则站在右边。别人怎么做你就怎么做吧。”
