• Argentinians are generally expressive and direct. Personal questions are usually signs of curiosity. Greetings often include cheek kissing (right then left) among acquaintances, while handshakes are common for professional introductions. Loud or passionate discussions, including the use of profanity, are common and not typically considered personal offense. While professional appointments require punctuality, social activities often maintain a flexible pace. Visitors should refrain from expressing opinions on domestic politics or concerning the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) or the UK.
