Talk about work. 2. It’s not considered impolite and is a popular topic of discussion between strangers.

Talk about sports. Americans love sports! 3. When speaking about football, most Americans understand “American Football”, not soccer.

Public Behavior

Always shake hands. 5. This is true for both men and women. Other forms of greeting such as kissing on the cheeks is generally not appreciated.
