Socializing
Wales
A film handshake is usual when first being
introduced, but is often dispensed with thereafter, unless one has not seen the
person for some time. When meeting for the first time, a common greeting is
“How d’you do?” or “Pleased to meet you.” On other occasions, “How are you?”
may be used. Good friends, especially young people, use “Hello” and “Hi” to
greet each other. Women who are close friends may kiss each other once lightly
on the cheek; sometimes men also kiss women this way. Many women remain seated
when being introduced and shaking hands. First names are widely used.
The welsh enjoy visiting friends and neighbors, and
often call without an invitation. If invited for a meal, however, it is
considered impolite to arrive late.
Workingmen’s clubs are an important social base in
many communities, and pubs (public houses, which serve alcoholic drinks and
often food) are also popular places for relaxation. Full membership in
workingmen’s clubs is restricted to men; women can be associate members.
