A Ana ficando quietinha sobre os BR chapando em publico kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

I found it so funny that everyone was shocked that we Brazilians call teachers, doctors etc by their first names, like: "omg you guys are so rebel" 😂

In Brazil it feels like surnames exists only for the sake or differentiating between two people with the same first name. We really don't give much importance to that, no one says their surname when presenting themselves unless it's something REALLY formal. The concept of calling anyone by their surname is completely alien for most of us.

Ana forgot to say that in Brazil, children and sometimes teenagers usually call their teachers and older people as uncle/aunt

The Belgium girl is so classy We Brazilians drink alcohol on literally anything available at the time

A na só escutando a Belga falar da cerveja em copo errado sabendo que nós bebemos cerveja até em copo de geleia de mocotó e nos bares no brasil usa-se mais o famoso copo americano que bebe-se tudo nele!! kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

In Brasil, "Copo americano" you can pour whatever you want there. It doesn't matter if its coffee, juice, beer, water, everything is fine!

ana forgot the biggest of all brazilian taboos. the one that is widely known all over the country: The upside down slippers. There is a superstition that if you don't untap immediately, your mother will die.

In Brazil we also ask for "blessing" from the olders (edit: from our family) to show respect (idk if it happens in the whole country but it's very common in northeast)

In Brazil, the rule is: if the other person gives you the freedom to be informal, you can be informal, and this is for everyone and everywhere. Sometimes the teachers, bosses, fathers, or other person. I just have teachers that I call for nicknames, for the first name and other just for "teacher" (professor in PT BR).

During carnival in Brazil lot of people walks almost naked on the street but as soon as finish, it gets back to be a taboo and next year happens the same and I love it hahahahahha

A Ana vem representando muito bem os brasileiros nessas brincadeiras! Ela é divertida, inteligente, linda! Que mulher e que sorte a nossa!

In Brazil we don't like to touch the food, it's not higienic. Even when we eat using the hands we usually use napkins to grab the food.

Yeah, in Brazil we don't even know people's surnames 🤷🏼‍♀️

I feel that there are also differences between the states of Brazil bout the "formality"... Northeasterners for example will probably use the formal form for older/unknown/higher charge people

É só falar que a gente usa guardanapo pra segurar as coisas que vai comer.

Ana is so cute

Achei muito curioso que todas as superstições citadas pela americana também temos no Brasil!

In Brazil it's disrespectful not greeting someone or saying goodbye when seeing someone too. Some people will answer a conversation that doesn't start with a "good morning" with something like "did you sleep with me this night?" lmao

Karijn is the prettiest among them! 😍💘💓😘

every family that I know of in Brazil talks about weight and tells them they gained weight and stuff like that. ana must have a really polite and conscious family if they don't

The Spanish girl is my favorite! I loved her sense of humor!

In Philippines during family reunions you won't only be told by your aunts, uncles that you gained weight. They will also ask things like, "Do you already have a wife/ husband?", "When are you getting married?".

In Spain we do call the teachers and professors by their first name too, at least in the school and universities I've been in.

🇧🇷 Brazilian pizza has too much topping, it's hard to eat it with your hands. The topping is going to fall off

Sooo interesting that in Philippines of all places there's a culture similar to the fairy customs from many places in europe like ireland and norway... i find those customs so fantastic and eerily mysterious, really interesting

Great interesting video, thanks ladies .

In Brazil kids and sometimes teenagers can also call an older person or a teacher as “uncle / aunt”, regardless if they know the person or not. Example “Aunt, may I go to the restroom” Instead of “teacher, may I go to the restroom?” Teacher in Portuguese is professor (male) and (professora) female, we don’t distinguish the title between school and university so sometimes we just abbreviate “Professor” to “Fessor” Like: Fessora, may I go to the restroom?

Brazilian here, I would like to say that it's even really strange sometimes to call a teacher by their last name,we don't usually do that

You should make more like this one. It's awesome to realize how people reacts to our culture. You should do one for country, as long as being interesting (I bet anyone will be).

Tem também a superstição do : “tá repreendido, bate na madeira”, pra quebrar uma “maldição” kk. Aquela de que acordar com o pé direito da sorte, a de se beber leite com manga morre (kkkk), o chinelo virado a mãe morre, os significados das cores das roupas/calcinhas no ano novo kk, apertar todos os botões do elevador, São Longuinho…. Vixe tem várias kkkkkk.

I am half Israeli half Brazilian, and a few years ago i went to visit some family in Brasil and we ordered pizza and I was yelled at by my cousin why am I eating with my hands... And in Israel its very common to ask people about how much they earn.

The Brazilian girl forgot to say that eating barehanded in public is like a sin

USA are different States, there are things that are taboo in some States and others are not, the Netherlands is famous for being a liberal country, there are allowed things there that in several countries are taboos

people out of brazil really dont get our "student-teacher/professor" relationship. we call them by first name, nicknames, we follow each other on Instagram, and sometimes even group chats on whatsapp w teachers

As a child in Brazil kids use to call their teachers like "aunt ..." ou "uncle ...". I did so to some of my thachers until 15, i guess. Shows proximity to the teachers, which is a good thing in here. We really disgust formality...

At Brazilian bars you actually almost always find frango à passarinha, which is deep fried chopped chicken, usually different parts of the chicken or just the lower part of the legs. Maybe it's not a thing where Ana comes from, but at any bar in Rio (and not only) it is a fairly basic finger food to have with beer. Of course we don't have buffalo wings, but for sure we do have chicken wings too

In Norway we call our teachers most often by theyre first names only

Cheers!! *Looks everyone in the eyes*

Here is a Brazilian taboo. People here shower twice a day, sometimes even more. It’s kinda taboo if you shower just once (cause it means you are either leaving your home “dirty” or going to bed dirty) and it is a nightmare if you don’t even shower daily.

Faltou dizer que se você for em qualquer padaria e pedir um pingado (café com leite) ele virá servido no mesmo copo americano :)

I think most of latin america dont use surnames when calling eachother unless they have the same first name but even then you just use the middle name. And just like Ana said we call our teachers by their first name too

The family telling you "Oh you gained weight" is not just in the Philippines. It's an Asian thing. 😂 Well, not Japan probably. They're too polite. 😂 I found it funny that all the Westerners thought it was sad. 😂

We use napkin in Brazil for fingerfoods

ANA você é demais preciso de mais vídeos com a Ana ela é incrível 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🤣😊

Fiquei hipnotizada na beleza da garota belga, ela parece uma boneca 😊❤

All six ladies are so pretty and adorable. Everyone is beatiful in their own way. Btw... I'm watching this video on the Tuesday, 13. 😱😅

Pizza with knife and fork is kind of like an important meeting or fancy date , too fussy , my reaction is to same that Belgium lady and Shannon 😂

Spaniard here. I'm doing a vocational training superior grade course. People in the class range from 18 to 22 years usually, we're no longer kids, and we call all our professors by their first name and use "you" form to approach them. But even more, we do NOT know their last names!!!! If someone would ever try to call "Mr" or "Mrs" to a teacher, everybody would look at him like an alien that came from space.

They are so pretty, naya is soo cute!

I expected Philippines to say so much more. Especially on the topic of finger food!

In Brasil it is very unrespectful for a guest to refuse to eat a meal, when it happens it is a "desfeita"

I'm not a Belgian but as a giant fan of Belgian beer I feel Naya so much! I even bought myself Rochefort and Tripel Karmeliet glasses so I can drink them properly at home. hahaha

I think the first/last name one (in the U.S., at least) mostly depends on the type of job. If it's an office, you might be more formal, but if it's like a factory job or a construction site, the boss will usually just introduce himself by his first name. Of course, if a costumer of the company shows up, then you definitely use the formal last name.

Eu to APAIXONADA pela ana, meu deus.

Ana é tão fofa cara❤❤❤

Ana❤

Hi, nice to know the facts

Irene looks very friendly and charismatic

Dang the Belgians are serious about their glassware and drinks.😂😂😂 Not surprised at the Belgian and Dutch girls having their own mini conversations lol I figured they’d have the most in common culturally.

Quando eu tinha 17 anos eu e minhas amigas fomos pra balada/ festa, com minha professora de biologia, você acha que eu não ia chamar meus professores pelo nome? 😂😂😂😂

It’s said that tuesday as a bad luck day in Spain (and hispanic countries) comes from Romans. Tuesday (martes in Spanish) was for romans the day dedicated to the god Mars (Marte), the god of war, so this day was good for winning wars, but that protection that Mars gave them for wars was taken away from other matters, such as doing business or closing a deal on Tuesday. That’s why in Spain we have the saying “En martes ni te cases ni te embarques” which means “On Tuesday (sometimes we add the 13th) neither get married nor embark (in the sense of starting something new or traveling)”

Talking about how much you earn especially if you are in the same industry is essential. It is the first step to acquiring equal pay for equal work. Sou brasileiro e acho isso muito importante.

In Brazil nobody eats anything with their hands, it is seen as a lack of hygiene. Here we eat everything with cutlery or napkins... Pizza? We eat with a knife and fork!

"Copo Americano" não existe em Belo Horizonte. Aqui o copo se chama Lagoinha. For your information!

Why is America separated from the rest of the group? In this particular case, the comparison is between each other not USA versus the World.

About the copo americano that Ana said: its a small glass, with about 190ml. I guess this arre very popular here because in most states is very hot, so if your glass is a big one your beer will get hot before you have done with it. Then we put the beer bottle on a "container" that keeps it cold and full de glass once its empity.

In the Philippines, the Filipino version of saying HELLO/HEY is head gesture, NODDING head, once or twice or saying this phrase, HAVE YOU EATEN?

I think that because Brazilians want to be friends with everyone and it is part of the culture, so sometimes we become friends with our teachers, with cops, doctors, and I call them by the first name, drink together and all

Call someone by "Mr" "Ms" (senhor, senhora) in Brazil is kinda impolite, the person will answer "oohhh please I'm not old" or "Senhor is in the heavens" 😆

in brasil people can pop a beer right they get out of work, sometimes while working too lol

6:00 I can see the face on Phillippines explains how much eager she is to tell the dutch how we usually eat because we do it with bare hands

As a Dutch person I wouldn't call it 'taboo', just generally rude to come visit unannounced, especially during dinner time. A lot of countries are very 'the door is always open', but Dutch people are quite strict in their planning and food, I think. Don't expect to be offered a plate etc because they probably only cooked enough for the people there.

In Italy it’s Friday the 17th the bad luck day 😂

In the US the formality depends on location too. In the west coast it’s less formal and we call each other by first name, not Mrs or Mr. With teachers, it’s Ms or Mr.

the Beer thing in Belgium... That's why I have a huge beer glass collection :D

9:39 what happened to Philippines lol

As a Filipina, yes I 💯agree about the comments with regards to weightgain. Sometimes your relatives will be the first ones to say that out loud regardless of who might hear-that you gained weight. Sad but true. I had experienced it myself.

The open container laws the American is referring to are regional. NC is in the Bible belt where there are more strict alcohol laws. There are places in the States where you can purchase alcohol in any store, you can purchase early in the morning or late at night, you can purchase on Sundays, you can have an open container in a public place and even have open containers in a vehicle.

There are cities you can have an open container and drink. You cannot drive or have it in a vehicle but you can have an open drink in public. For example Indianapolis, Las Vegas, I think Austin, Texas (used to). I am there are others.

Brazil: don't ever never ever mistake portuguese with spanish! Don't do that! We speak PORTUGUESE.

Speaking of Brazil, I believe that many taboos are related to women, such as those questions about age and weight, others like suggesting splitting the bill (especially on the first date) or kissing with your eyes open. Other silly things like how do you have to name a cookie, if is "Biscoito" or "Bolacha". Not discussing about politics or religion is the basic, as well which is the best football team. And talking about foreigners, never say that the language of Brazil is spanish.

As a spaniard i've always called my teachers either by their first names or by nicknames, for example: Jesus / chuso, primi, loli, marisa, guille,etc. Maybe it's just a thing we did at my highschool?

The pouring thing in Belgium… I must confess that as a Brazilian I do the same. I don’t put water into a mug or drink wine from a regular glass. Mug is for coffee, tea… 🤣 I thought I was crazy

A maioria das pizzas no Brasil eu como com garfo e faca pq as nossas pizzas são verdadeiras tortas cheias de recheios, as vezes fica caindo pelos cantos então é mais fácil usar o garfo XD

They did a challenge who can say the most time "like" within 14 minutes

Naquele dia você dirá: “Louvai ao Senhor, proclamai o Seu nome; fazei conhecido entre as nações o que Ele fez, e proclamai que o Seu nome é exaltado” (Isaías 12: 4) 💟✨

Louisiana would like a word... drink wherever lol!

In Brazil wings are common just not super popular, but we do eat a lot of fried chicken in bars, though its the whole chicken cut into small pieces, we call it "frango a passarinho" and there's no way of eating it instead of using your hands.

Irene, Shannon and Naya it's the BEST TRIO EVER

Preciso da ana em todos os vídeos 😻😻

in the Philippines it's taboo to fit your wedding dress ! it's taboo to have 2 weddings within one calendar year!

In Brazil we can drink everywhere 🤣

In the US you are always told to never talk about religion or politics at the work place. I would say that is one of the biggest taboos.

I'm Spanish so I'm going to give/include extra info: - Botellón: you can go to a supermarket and buy alcohol (of course) which it's cheaper than drinking it at a bar or a club, and that's why young people do it. What you can't do (some people do it anyway) is buying alcohol and being with a whole group of people on a park or in the streets drinking alcohol (and being noisy, littering, etc). I've never been in one, so I'm not 100% certain of this. - Tuesday 13th is kind of like Friday 13th. Tuesday in Spain is Martes, Martes comes from Mars (roman god), so it would be Mars' day. 13 as its own is already a bad luck number (for a lot of reasons), pair it with the god of war and that's it. I think it is also a bad luck day in Greece? I don't know about this part. Obviously if you aren't supersticious you won't care about it, but if you are you will try to avoid it. - Philippines: Irene says "usted", although in the subtitles it says something like "particular word" XD. She is just saying "usted". Usted is the second person pronoun as it is "Tú" (You), but most of the people when they use it they're trying to be polite and formal. However, in some places (both in Spain and in America) they use it as a regular "Tú" and in these cases politeness isn't relevant. Even though it is a second person pronoun you conjugate it with third person pronoun verbs though. Even though it is like Tú, you conjugate verbs like if you were using Él o Ella (He/She). Thus you would say Tú dices (you say) and Usted dice (in the same way you would say Él dice), you are using a second person pronoun, in a third person person conjugation verb. Anyway, it's just grammar stuff I don't know if I'm being clear or not, if you have more doubts about it there's probably a lot of better info on the Internet than my own. XD About the politeness part, I think I've never called someone for their last name instead of their name. And yeah, when I was at school we would say maestro (teacher) or profesor (professor) but I don't remember ever using their last names either. And it's true, when you treat people as Usted or Señor/Señora, some people will think you are saying they're an old person. Some honorific prefixes are señor, señora, señorita, señorito, don y doña. I've never used them, maybe I'm too rude? XD

Welcome

A moça da espanha é muito legal hahah

I believe that the reason why Tuesday the 13th is unlucky in the Hispanosphere is that in the Romance languages, Tuesday ("martés" in Spanish) is named for Mars, the Roman god of war. As for Friday the 13th being such in the West, the most likely root for Friday specifically is the Crucifixion; many theories have been posited regarding the supposed bad luck of thirteen.

Irene is so cute 🥰

Zo grappig
