americans , anything goes . it"s true that americans are rather casual . still , there are many social blunders that will offend them . most american attitudes about good manners relate to showing respect and consideration for others. americans believe that all people are entitled to equal oppotunity and respect . no one is privileged and no one is worthless . a person who acts very humble and timid will make his or her american friends uncomfortable. on the other hand a domineering person will have trouble keeping american friends. a polite but assertive manner is socially acceptable. no matter what your status is in relation to another person feel free to look directly into his eyes and speak your true feelings.переведите пожалуйста буду очень благодарна
