Hello , I'm Maria Pinto.
ReplyDelete-Queues. Because they respect them and say ''okay i'm going to wait my turn'' but they are the only one that do that.
-They're too polite.
-Teeth. Because they don't care about them at all.
- Englands use the expression ''see you later'' but they never see them later.

ReplyDelete1) Queues: a liine or sequence of people or vehicles awaiting their turn attended to or to proceed. In Great Britain tgere are a lot of queues.
2)British people use so many words to ask for things, they are too polite
3)The teeth, because they don't care about the health of their teeth
4) The expressions are really weird, like "How are you?" or "See you later".
Thank you , Pablo.

Hi, I´m Miriam, from 1ºB, here are my answers:
ReplyDelete1. Queuing: British people make a line to wait for everything.
2. Manners:They are so polite that to ask for anything always sayto many "sorries" and "pleases"
3. Their theeth: Usually british people do not care much about their dental higiene.
4. Expressions: Like, they never ask "How are you?" and always say "See you later" when they are not going to see whoever later.
What annoy me the most out of the above, are manners. Don't get me wrong, I love people to be polite and so I try to be, but british people are excesive with etiquette and manners, when asking for something I like people to be polite but also direct.
