Greetings

Did you know that in France when friends meet they kiss on the cheek. How many times they kiss depends on the region they come from, it's twice in the north of France, three in the South-East and four in Paris. Although even some French people have trouble agreeing on the "rules"!

Telephoning

"Mr Brown speaking". This may seem a strange way to start a telephone conversation but that's what often happens in the UK. When asking for a person on the phone, the reply might even be "Speaking", which means you've reached the right person.
