1. How do people greet around the world?(Research in internet)

The two countries I investigated are japan and turkey.

Japón:

In Japan, it is common to greet people with a nod of the head, known as "ojigi". The head tilt can vary in angle depending on the level of formality and respect one wishes to express. It is used in a variety of situations, from informal greetings among friends to more formal interactions at work or with older people. In general, the deeper the bow, the greater the level of respect shown. In addition, on more casual occasions, the verbal greeting "Konnichiwa" which means "Hello" in Japanese is also common.
