THAI BODY LANGUAGE


' Wai - Sawasdee '


A common Thai greeting is to place your hands together in a prayer like position.  In addition to greeting and saying goodbye, the wai is also always used when either presenting or receiving a gift. The wai is, amongst other things, a mark of respect for position and age. For Thais, different levels of the closed hands can show different degrees of respect.
