[00:01.81]And what about speaking?
[00:03.53]Right, well people from "open" cultures
[00:05.74]are more likely to interrupt
[00:07.50]or speak at the same time as the other person.
[00:10.49]In "closed" cultures,
[00:12.15]one person starts speaking
[00:13.56]only when the other has stopped.
[00:15.75]In a place like Japan,

[00:46.33]If you don't,it sounds very rude.
[00:49.18]In other cultures,like Latin cultures,
[00:51.78]to say "please" and "thank you"
[00:53.46]all the time sounds a bit false.
[00:55.57]I see. Well, thank you very much Dr Groot.
[00:58.72]That was fascinating.
[01:00.36]I'm afraid we'll have to stop there.
[01:02.13]Tomorrow we'll be...
