    Because there are more than 250 gestures that Italian people often use in their daily life, and the number of gestures is basically the same as the number of words they speak. Moreover, even if the northern and southern Italian people can't understand their own dialect, they can understand each other's meaning through their own gestures.

    Body language is an important part of expression.Not only Italians, many people add body movements when they are speaking, which can make them express themselves better, and some studies have shown that such people are more leadership.They are usually more open and enthusiastic.So I think it depends on people's different personalities.

    Sign language plays a very important role in Italy. Dialects due to regional differences can also be eliminated by gesture. According to statistics, italians in daily life often use the standard gesture more than 250. The italians themselves quipped, "if we tied our hands, we wouldn't know what to say". Various sign languages make up Italy's unique gesture culture, so if you understand Italian gestures, you will understand them

    That's because Italians tend to use gesture language. When they talk with others, they use their hands to show their thinking and ideas. For them, expressing is an important part of thier lives. However, not only Italians, many people add body movements when they are speaking, it's a good way to express their thinking especially of great use to beginners of foreign languages. When it becomes a habit, people can't talk without gesture language.

    Italian culture is pragmatic. In societies with a pragmatic orientation, people believe that truth depends very much on situation, context and time.

    Generally speaking, the best times to make business appointments are in the morning between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m., or after 3 p.m.

    The exchanging of business cards should take place only at the beginning of the first business meeting.

    Demonstrating a sense of urgency is seen as a sign of weakness. At the beginning of a meeting avoid business and concentrate on some small talk. Topics of discussion could include culture, food and football.
