But in parts of Polynesia (波利尼西亚) it is bad manners to be seen eating b4 each other. So they politely turn their backs to each other when they are taking food.

Some East Africans spit (吐口水) four times as a kind of blessing (祝福) . They do it to show that they want a sick person to get w 5 ,or to bless a new-born baby. In most other places,spitting means something completely (完全地) d 6 It usually shows an unhealthy habit. In many countries,it may mean that you h 7 someone.
