“Excuse me!”

Filed under: Generalspencerc | 3/3/2007 @ 4:54 pm (Views: 2591)

One day in the past  when I was touring the great metropolis Shanghai city ,southeastern China, I picked a seat on the train, I found a lady who was sitting before me ,and with her little daughter, on the trip ,she was teaching his daughter to acquaint with one book akin to those for children, from her words, I learnt that she speaked English and Chinese ,but she was as alike as Chinese!suddenly ,she sneezed before saying A “Excuse me!” ,at that time ,I was just thinking she was  very courteous I’ve ever seen .

Afterwards ,a couple of months have elapsed since that happened ,in the library,when I was reading a piece of newspaper,which said only the native English speakers would say out “Excuse me !”after they sneeze, then I understood ,she is a native English speaker, it’s so interesting ,isn’t it ?why not say A “Excuse me”after we sneeze in our daily lives?you will be courteous to everyone!

    It’s very rude to cough or sneeze
    And do not say ‘Excuse Me Please’
    Nursery says it makes it wild
    To see a badly brought up child
