British people are very polite,sometimes too polite. They always say sorry 1 everything,even there is no need to apologize,and they can spend a long time 2 (do) so. For me it is normal to do this. I am a very polite person and will always apologize for getting in someone's way in the street and I 3 (normal) expect that the other person will apologize too.
Before I moved toGermanyI 4 (tell) that Europeans are more direct and not as 5 (polite) as British people. There is no need for an apology when you stand on someone's toe or try to walk in the same direction as another person. I am very surprised that people do not 6 to me when they have stood on my foot,7 hit me over the head with their bag because I am so used to it. One of my friends here explained to me that most 8 (German) feel no need to apologize as both people should know that it was an accident.
When you're in a hurry or very busy,9 should you waste time apologizing over and over again to someone who already knows that you did not mean to do it? However I still find 10 very strange when something like this occurs.
