Community Tutor在中国,看病人千万不能送的礼物!
梨和菊花是千万不要送给你要探望的病人。因为“梨”和“离”发音相同,会有分离、离别的不好寓意。
而菊花是扫墓或者参加葬礼时的专用花。
所以,要是不想惹人不高兴,就一定记住这个小文化哦!
NEVER send the patient pear and chrysanthemum in China!
Because the pronunciations of “梨”and”离” is same. So pear as a gift makes people think about separation\leave, the meaning is not good.
Chrysanthemums are the funeral flowers in China.So if you don’t make anyone unhappy or embarrassed, remember this tip.
