How do you show respect to older people in your country?
elder relatives, I kiss their hands. But to elder people not related by blood, I just say something polite and greetings 😀
elder relatives, I get their hand and, like, tap the back of their hand onto my forehead. it’s a tradition in my country. it’s somewhat kissing their hands too. and say polite greetings.
We are asking for blessings from the elders. Getting their hand, tap it on our forehead and say “mano po” (eng.bless me) and and the elders will say “God Bless You”.
I might not look like but I am pretty old
We called them Sir with our head a bit bowed.
I guess in just the same way as you would another person. You greet them when you see them, you don’t answer back and choose your words wisely when you’re around them.
Kiss their hands and also hold it unto my forehead.It’s a tradition here in my country Philippines,Say polite greetings like,”Po” Opo”.
Yes, we should respect our elders. Furthermore, if you don’t give respect, you don’t get respect.
by following the simple rules by our country in that way we can help our country to show our respect in some little way.
We touch their feet.
Just by shaking hands and then there is no way an elderly person should stand when a young person is seated,one has to offer the seat as a way of respect.
