• Argentine communication is often direct, emotive, and conversational; personal questions are common. Elevated voices and interruptions usually signal passion, not conflict. Cheek kissing is standard for greetings in cities (especially among women); handshaking is typical in rural areas. While time is flexible, punctuality is expected for business meetings. Profanity is used frequently but is usually not intended as an offense. Sensitive topics include the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas), domestic politics, and comparisons with neighboring countries.
