What hand signs mean in different countries


https://youtu.be/JI3WEAj5KpE
Hand gestures are a form of nonverbal communication that can convey various meanings and intentions depending on the context and culture. However, the same gesture may have different or even opposite meanings in different countries, which can lead to misunderstandings or even offense. For example, the thumbs-up gesture, which is commonly used to express approval or agreement in many Western countries, is considered rude and vulgar in some parts of the Middle East and Africa. Similarly, the OK sign, formed by making a circle with the thumb and index finger, is a positive sign in the United States and some European countries, but it is an insult in Brazil and Turkey, where it implies a derogatory reference to a body part. Another example is the V sign, made by raising the index and middle fingers with the palm facing outwards, which is a symbol of peace or victory in many countries, but it is an offensive gesture in the United Kingdom and Australia if the palm faces inwards, as it means “up yours”. These are just some of the many examples of how hand gestures can have different meanings in different countries, and why it is important to be aware of the cultural context and norms before using them.
