Answer 3

I'm Korean-Chinese, but i still practise Chinese traditional practices though i live in Singapore. Some of them include:

- If eating together , you must wait for the elders to start eating before you do/ Or you have to say something like ' Auntie, eat'. It sounds unecessary but it's a form of respect

- Young people are not supposed to interrupt the adults.

-The young people cannot express their views in front of their elders. It's deemed to be rude.

- After eating, you are expected to bring your own bowl to the sink. It'll be better if you could wash it yourself, but it's not necessary.

- When meeting someone on the streets, you supposed to smile and say' Have you eaten?' instead of 'Hello'. It's reccommeded to do the first one.

There are many many more, and i can't list all of them here. It's impossible. Go search on the internet for it.
