Gesty francuskie

Mowa ciała nie zawsze okazuję się uniwersalna. Poniżej kilka przykładów gestów francuskich.

Gesture 1: « On a sommeil »
Gestes français - French Gestures

This gesture has two meanings. It can indicate someone

    * who is tired and wants to go to sleep, or
    * who is asleep and shouldn't be woken up

Join your hands, place them on your shoulder, rest your cheek on them, and (optionally) close your eyes.

Gesture 2: « Silence ! / Chut ! »
Gestes français - French Gestures

To let people know that they need to be quiet, raise your index finger in the air. The stern facial expression is optional. ;-) 

Gesture 3: « Alors là / Bof »

Gestes français - French Gestures

The "Gallic shrug" gesture has a number of meanings:

    * It's not my fault
    * I don't know
    * I doubt it can be done
    * I don't really agree

Raise your shoulders; hold up your hands, palms out; stick out your lower lip; raise your eyebrows; and say "Moi, je n'y peux rien," "Moi, je n'en sais rien," "Alors là," or simply "Bof !"
