Culture*


Do you know what this gesture means?

(Look at the picture.)

I studied body language last week.

In Japan, this sign means "go to hell".

So, don't do that Japan!!

Do you have any other special gesture?

If you have please tell me(^д^)

In the US that means something along the lines of "no" or "bad."

It can also be used as a form of feedback. Like, if you do some sort of performance, and you ask someone to rate your performance, if they give that sign, that means that they think that your performance was not good.

In the US that does not mean "go to hell." We use a different gesture for that...

it reminds me of Brazilian gesture
"Tá bom" in an opposite direction, which means "it's good".
