Spanish speakers smile a lot more and make a lot less eye contact when speaking to another person. This makes English speakers think that Spanish speakers are not serious and not to be trusted. It makes Spanish speakers think that English speakers are cold and threatening. Also, in Spanish-speaking cultures, it is considered rude to throw anything at another person. In English-speaking cultures, it is common to toss small objects like pencils or candy.

  Social relations are somewhat more formal in Spanish-speaking countries. New acquaintances often greet each other with a handshake. Friends however may greet each other with a hug or a kiss on the cheek. In Spain, friends may greet each other with a light kiss on both cheeks. Latin Americans kiss on only one cheek. When men greet each other, they often shake hands, pat each other on the back or hug.
