Sindhi Language is tied back to Indian culture. India is one of the most diverse countries in the world. It is a sophisticated, modern, industrial leader that is home to many primitive tribes and millions of poor people. Religion and language separate people because every state in India has its own culture, own language and won food. Like any distinct culture with a rich history, India has many nonverbal traits that it can call its own. In order to fully understand the scope and depth of any culture’s nonverbal communication you need to study the people and languages of the country. Body language in Indian culture can affect the relationships we create with each other. Here are few examples of body language that are tied to Indian culture:

  • Public displays of affection are not appropriate. In India, like in Western cultures you will not find a man and women kissing in public.
  • Movement of your head when you’re talking is normal.
  • At a household of any Indian, people will eat food with their hands rather than utensils.
  • Removing your shoes when entering a home is a sign of respect because many Indians are religious.
