Greeks are loud and proud
Greeks frequently use their hands and speak aloud and swiftly. People occasionally become confused by this, especially those who are from cultures where being loud is neither encouraged nor expected.
It frequently appears that people are arguing. They might, however, be discussing where they should have a coffee or what they had for lunch.
Greek dancing is a way for people to show loudness. Even among young people, traditional dances are still incredibly popular. You are sure to observe people dancing wildly during the renowned Greek festivities, panigiria. Greeks also employ a lot of profanity. For instance, the word "Malaka" has achieved global fame!
Speaking isn't the only activity that involves loudness; driving in Greece is only one example. It's customary for cars to honk at the car in front just before the light turns green.
