◎What does the "O" gesture mean?
If you are an English speaker or diving(潜水) under the sea, it means "OK" or "good". In fact, it's believed that this gesture is popular used by divers. The Japanese read it as "money". The French read it as "zero" or "no value".
◎What does the "thumb-up" gesture mean?
This gesture also means differently in different countries. English speakers use it to stand for "OK", which is the same meaning as the "O" gesture. To most people, it stands for the number "1", since they count from 1 to 5, beginning with the thumb for 1 and ending with the little finger for the number 5.
Although Americans and British people usually ask for a ride with their thumbs raised, the gesture will not make a Greek(希腊)driver stop to give them a ride.
◎What does it mean to extend (伸出) your index finger (食指)?
Extending the index finger means different things in different countries. The Chinese extend their index finger upward to show the number. They can refer to the number, such as "one", "one hundred", "one thousand", etc. In Japan, the index finger up means only one or once. This gesture means the first in order. In the United States of America, use this gesture when asking the other person to wait. In Australia, in bars and restaurants, the index finger is extended upward, saying, "A glass of beer, please. " But pay attention, in the Middle East, it is impolite to point at something with your index finger.
