In generale, i regali sono fatti a capodanno cinese, matrimoni, nascite e più recentemente, compleanni.

It's traditional to bring a gift when invited to someone's home.Usually fresh flowers or frurt are your best(the number eight is considered lucky,so eight oranges is a good idea) or,of course,anything from home.The more expensive the gift,the more respectful,but don't go over the top or you'll embarrass your hosts,who may feel the need to bankrupt themselves to return your generosity.Don't be surprised when,if your gift is wrapped,it is placed somewhere prominent all evening and hot unwrapped until after you leave(your hosts might look greedy and ungrateful if the gift box is opened too hastily and in front of you.It is also courteous to bring somthing back from traveling—just a token gift is fine.But be sure to be fair with your gift-giving:don't give something nicer to the secertary in the office than to the dean of the college,and don't give to one group of srudents and another-they'll find out,you can Scommetti su di esso. Spedisce, è meglio dare qualcosa che può essere condiviso, come il cibo.
