British culture
English character
• One of the most striking features of English
life is the self-discipline and courtesy of
people of all classes.
Englishmen are naturally polite
•". if you follow anyone
who is entering a building
or a room, he will hold a
door open for you.
"An Englishman's house is his castle.''
Many Englishmen help their wives at
home in many ways
they often wash up the dishes after
supper in the evening.
Socializing
• You may sometimes get the impression that
the British are an unfriendly lot
As an outsider, it may be left to you to
make the first move
“nice weather”
• The weather is a hallowed
topic and it’s the duty of
every upstanding citizen to
make daily weather
predictions
Queuing
• The British have a passion for queuing and
appear to outsiders to have endless patience
. The British queue everywhere for
everything
British Food
• While it’s true that British
food is often bland, may look
terrible and can make you
sick, for most people it’s just a
matter of getting used to it.
British can console themselves with
the knowledge that they at least
know how to behave at the table
British are famous for their love of
wine
British are among the world’s
foremost Wine experts
Drinking habits
• The British do at least know how to
make a good tea
The British recipe for any national
disaster is to make a ‘nice cup of tea’.
Tea is drunk at almost any time
approaching 200 million cups a day
Sport
The British are sports mad
English, are famous for their sense of
fair
The real character and true sporting
traditions of the English are embodied
in the game of cricket
•
Cricket is a game for
gentlemen
