There are many cultural differences between america and Spanish-speaking countries. One is the way they great each-other. In america, we shake hands, however in latin america they kiss each other’s cheeks. Each Spanish Speaking country has it’s own way to great each other, each country also has their own way to speak, and their own cultural interests. In Spanish, you might say “Hola, buenas noches, mi nombre es —“ meaning “Hello, good evening, my name is —.” This is very similar to the way we great each-other in america.
