The Americans and the British not only speak the same language
but also share a large number of social customs.
For example,
in both America and England people shake hands
when they meet each other for the first time.
This is often true for women as well as for men.
Also,
most Englishmen will open a door for a women
or offer their seat to a women,
and so will most Americans.
Neither the British nor the Americans oblect to standing in line
at the post office,
the movies,
the bank,
or anywhere.
Promptness is important both in England in America.
That is,
if a dinner invitation is for seven o'clock,
the dinner guest either arrives
close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.
