FRIENDLY GESTURES
Giving dap
dap is a friendly gesture of greeting, agreement, or solidarity between two people that has become popular in western cultures, particularly since the 1970s, originating from African American communities. Giving dap typically involves handshaking (often, by hooking thumbs),
pound hugging, fist pounding, or chest- bumping The practice and term originated among black soldiers during the Vietnam War, as part of the Black Power movement and the term is attested since 1971.
Some people believe that “dap” is an acronym for “dignity and pride,” reflecting the adoption of the dap greeting by the black power movement. Others suggest that “dignity and pride” is merely what is sometimes called a "backronym" — an acronym thought up after a word already existed. "Dap" also might be a shortening of another word or an onomatopoeia — a word that imitates the noise produced by this type of greeting; some dap greetings create a sound much like “dap,” which is produced by pulling the slightly cupped hands of the participants against each other.

A fist bump
Fist bump
A fist bump (also called power five, dap, fist pound, touch, or brofist) is a gesture similar in meaning to a handshake or high five. A fist bump can also be a symbol of giving respect. It can be followed by various other hand and body gestures and may be part of a dap greeting. It is commonly used in baseball and hockey as a form of celebration with teammates, and with opposition players at the end of a game. In cricket it is a common celebratory gesture between batting partners.

Pound hug
The pound hug (also referred to as a pound shake, hip-hop hug, one-armed hug, dude hug, cootie hug, homie hug, shug, hetero hug, bro-grab,bro hug, brah hug, thug hug, man-hug, or a daps) is a stylized greeting, exclusively performed between two people, that consists of a combination of a handshake and one-armed hug.
Unlike the traditional hug, which symbolically and effectively removes interpersonal barriers and unites the two persons embracing, the pound hug—performed by keeping the right hand locked in handshake while the left arm wraps around the other's shoulder—interposes the obstacle of the two right arms to the joining of the two bodies. The origin of this hug is not clear.
Fist pump

Fist pump
The fist pump is a celebratory gesture in which a fist is raised before the torso and subsequently drawn down and nearer to the body in a vigorous, swift motion. The fist pump is sometimes carried out in parts of the Western Hemisphere, Europe, and Japan (where it is known as guts pose) to denote enthusiasm, exuberance, or success and may be accompanied by a similarly energetic exclamation or vociferation. The gesture may be executed once or in a rapid series.

Hat tip
A hat tip is an act of tipping or (especially in British English) doffing one's hat as a cultural expression of recognition, respect, gratitude, greeting, or simple salutation and acknowledgement between two persons. In Western societies of the 19th and early 20th centuries, a hat tip was a common non-verbal greeting between friends or acquaintances while walking or meeting at a social gathering.
Typically, two men (female hat tipping was rare) would lift or tip their hats to each other, rather than exchange words of greeting. Where the ritual was used to emphasize social distance, the subordinate was obliged to make the more elaborate gesture, for example fully removing his hat while the superior merely touched his. The military hand salute is thought to have originated as a stylized hat tip; while the civilian may return a salute via a hat tip. In its modern use, the hat tip has been replaced by the nod as a manner of respect. If one man gives another the nod, he should return in kind with either the casual nod up or the formal nod down

脱帽
脱帽礼来源于冷兵器时代,
当时,作战都要戴头盔,
头盔多用铁制,十分笨重。
战士到了安全地带,首先是
把头盔摘下,以减轻沉重
的负担。这样脱帽就意味着
没有敌意,如到友人家,
为表示友好,也以脱盔示意·
这种习惯流传下来,
就是今天的脱帽礼。
时至今日,行脱帽礼已经在美国很罕见了,部分的原因是社交礼仪已不那么严格,另有部分原因即人们也不怎么戴帽子了。然而在20世纪50年代,男人对女人脱帽行礼还是司空见惯的,不论在室内还是搭电梯,男人们都要脱帽。(在1949年,已知最早的电梯礼仪准则里这么说:不计其数的女人抱怨男人们在人群中行礼时总打到她们的头,因此男人们不要脱帽了。)
with hat in hand,意为“对……膜拜,
言听计从,尽极承欢”;
I take my hat off to him.意为
“我对他表达仰慕之意”。

High five
the high five is a hand gesture that occurs when two people simultaneously raise one hand each, about head-high, and push, slide, or slap the flat of their palm against the flat palm of the other person. The gesture is often preceded verbally by a phrase like "Give me five" or "High five." Its meaning varies with the context of use but can include as a greeting, congratulations or celebration
Air five
An air five is a variation where the hands of the participants never physically touch, needing only line of sight to make the gesture.It has an advantage for participants who are otherwise too far apart to achieve physical contact at the moment of the gesture. The participants may simply pretend to high five, or add an imitation sound of hand slapping. Also known as the wi-five, a mix of "wireless" and "high five" with a pun on wi-fi, a wireless computer technology.

Hongi
A hongi is a traditional Māori greeting in New Zealand. It is done by pressing one's nose and forehead (at the same time) to another person at an encounter. In the hongi, the ha (or breath of life), is exchanged and intermingled. The breath of life can also be interpreted as the sharing of both party's souls.Through the exchange of this physical greeting, one is no longer considered manuhiri (visitor) but rather tangata whenua, one of the people of the land. For the remainder of one's stay one is obliged to share in all the duties and responsibilities of the home people

hand-kissing
a gesture indicating courtesy, politeness, respect, admiration or even devotion by one person toward another.A hand-kiss is initiated by the person receiving the greeting by holding out their hand with the palm facing downward; or by the person giving the greeting, by extending a hand to grasp the recipient's hand. The person kissing bows towards the offered hand and (symbolically) touches the knuckles with their lips, while lightly holding the offered hand. However, the lips do not actually touch the hand in modern tradition. The gesture is short, lasting less than a second.
In Turkey, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei and the Philippines, hand-kissing is a common way to greet elder people of both genders, primarily the closest relatives (both parents, grandparents, and uncles or aunts) and teachers. Occasionally, after kissing the hand, the greeter will draw the hand to his own forehead.
吻手礼——欧洲如英国、法国、德国、波兰、沙特。
吻手礼源于古代维京人用手向其日耳曼君主递礼物的风俗,流行于欧美上层社会流行于欧美上流社会异性之间的一种最高层次的见面礼,是一种仅对贵族已婚妇女实施的礼节。吻手礼一般在室内举行,并且仅限于手腕以下部位,一般是指背。
这里注意,礼貌性的吻手礼并不是真的要亲吻到女士的手哦!
Blowing a kiss.
行吻手礼时,男士行至女士面前距约80 厘米,首先立正欠身致敬,女士先将右手轻轻向左前方抬起约60 度时,男士以右手或双手轻轻抬起女士的右手,同时俯身弯腰以自己微闭的嘴唇象征性地轻触一下女士的手背或手指,要稳重、自然、利索,不发出“吮”的声音,不留“遗迹” 。行吻手礼仅限于室内,而且主要是男士向已婚女士表示的一种敬意。在法国、波兰和拉美的一些国家里,向已婚女士行吻手礼,是男士有教养的表现。因此,在涉外场合,如果外方男士向中方女士行吻手礼时,应礼貌地予以接受。

“吻脚礼”是一种自发的、非制度化的仪式,早期寓意臣服,“谦卑地屈膝”、“跪在统治者面前”。跟这些一样,它也由东方国家传来。古埃及人是趴在主人面前的地上,闻嗅或亲吻土地。波斯人有个传统,谁接近国王,谁就必须边祈祷边趴在他面前。必须像面对神像一样以脸触地。有权享受这种跪拜礼的不仅仅是国王。它是高高在上的贵族们向他们的臣仆要求的一种自贬形式。即表示一种拜服的态度,后成为古罗马教徒中尊享的礼仪,现已不再流行。现在存在的吻脚礼多取尊重、尊敬之意,如尼泊尔人在重大节日要行传统吻脚礼。

This is used to convey affection, usually when parting or when the partners are physically distant but can view each other. Blown kisses are also used when a person wishes to convey affection to a large crowd or audience. The term flying kiss is used in India to describe a blown kiss

The greeting may also be spoken without the gesture or the gesture performed wordlessly, carrying the same meaning.
合十礼(salute with putting palms together)——印度泰国,缅甸,老挝佛教国家
合十礼,又称“合掌礼”,原是印度古国的文化礼仪之一,后为各国佛教徒沿用为日常普通礼节。行礼时,双掌合于胸前,十指并拢,以示虔诚和尊敬。这种礼仪多见于信奉佛教的国家,比如说泰国。泰国人见面时往往低头问候,并将双手合十于胸前。另外,泰国认为头部是神圣的,不能随意摸别人的头。
双掌举得越高,表示尊敬程度越深。平民百姓见国王双手要举过头顶,小辈见长辈要双手举至前额,两掌相合后需举至脸部。平辈相见举到鼻子以下。长辈对小辈还礼举到胸前,手部不应高过前胸。地位较低或年纪较轻者应先合十致意。
跪合十:各国佛教徒拜佛祖或高僧时要行的一种礼节。蹲合十:某些国家的人在拜见父母或师长时的一种礼节。站合十:某些国家的平民之间、平级官员之间相拜,或公务人员拜见长官时常用的一种礼节。

Bowing (also called stooping)
the act of lowering the torso and head as a social gesture in direction to another person or symbol. It is most prominent in Asian cultures but it is also typical of nobility and aristocracy in many countries and distinctively in Europe. It is also used in religious contexts, as a form of worship or veneration. Sometimes the gesture may be limited to lowering the head such as in Indonesia, and in many cultures several degrees of the lowness of the bow are distinguished and regarded as appropriate for different circumstances. It is especially prominent
in India, Thailand,China, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and Vietnam where it may be executed standing or kneeling. Some bows are performed equally by two or more people while others are unequal - the person bowed to either does not bow in return or performs a less low bow in response. A nod of the head may be regarded as the minimal form of bow; forms of kneeling, genuflection, or prostration which involves the hands or whole body touching the ground, are the next levels of gesture.

Kowtow
Kowtow, which is borrowed from kau tau in Cantonese (koutou in Mandarin Chinese), is the act of deep respect shown by prostration, that is,kneeling and bowing so low as to have one's head touching the ground.

In East Asian culture, the kowtow is the highest sign of reverence. It was widely used to show reverence for one's elders, superiors, and especially the Emperor, as well as for religious and cultural objects of worship. In modern times, usage of the kowtow has become reduced

Roman salute
The Roman salute is a gesture in which the arm is held out forward straight, with palm down, and fingers touching. In some versions, the arm is raised upward at an angle; in others, it is held out parallel to the ground. In contemporary times, the former is widely considered a symbol of fascism that is commonly perceived to be based on a custom in ancient Rome.However, no Roman text gives this description and the Roman works of art that display salutational gestures bear little resemblance to the modern Roman salute.
Nazi salute
Nazi salute
the Nazi salute or Hitler salute is a gesture that was used as a greeting in Nazi Germany. The salute is performed by extending the right arm in the air with a straightened hand. Usually, the person offering the salute would say "Heil Hitler!" (Hail Hitler!), "Heil, mein Führer!" (Hail, my leader!), or "Sieg Heil!" (Hail victory!). It was adopted in the 1930s by the Nazi Party to signal obedience to the party's leader – Adolf Hitler – and to glorify the German nation (and later the German war effort). The salute was mandatory for civilians, but was mostly optional for military personnel who retained the traditional military salute until shortly after the failed assassination attempt on Hitler in 1944.
