Discussion
One (or possibly two) French student responded with "ne
reponde pas a vos salutations". What about passing
another on the street and neither party says anything,
i.e. you pass on the street and no hellos or good
mornings are exchanged. Is this situation rude? I am
from the South where passing someone and not saying
anything is considered rude. However, Brown is in the
Northeast where no one says anything in passing and
there is no eye contact, and this is not at all
considered impolite. When walking down the street, is
it more common to say hello or to ignore the passing
party?
Just to add to what you were saying, Jonathan..
Last semester, in our French conversation section, we
talked about something similar -- whether students
acknowledge each other, especially when they knew each
other.
The TA was saying how it his university in Paris, as
compared to Brown, students were more likely to
acknowledge each other, or just smile and at least make
eye contact. In addition, at the beginning of each
class, students would make small talk even though they
might not necessarily know each other..
What do others think?
I think that people at Brown feel they have to know a
person a little more than just as a classmate before
they will recognize them just on the street and say
hello. However, I do think that small talk in class
does happen and that is how you begin to go from having
a classmate to an acquaintance that you would say hi to.
For the French students, does being a classmate
meaning that it would always be rude not to say hello to
the person in passing? Or is it generally someone you
have talked to inside or outside of class that you are
more likely to acknowledge?

le plus souvent dans le grandes villes comme paris ou
marseille les gens qui se croisent ont plutot tendance à
s'ignorer tandis que dans les zones rurales il paraît
normal de saluer les passants.Dans tous les cas, saluer
ou ne pas saluer les passants n'est jamais considérer
comme impoli ou pas.
Je suis assez d'accord avec François mais je voudrais
ajouter que la région d'où tu viens joue aussi. En
effet, je trouve que venant de province, on a tendance à
dire bonjour plus facilement et à "n'importe qui" dans
la rue.
