women, a smile and a hand wave is the usual greeting.
Close friends and family may accompany a handshake with a pat on the back. Females may hug and kiss
to greet each other.
Typically, people greet each other by saying, ‘kumusta kayo’ (‘how are you?’ in Tagalog).
If the person you are greeting is older than you but within the same generation, it is expected that you
will refer to that person as 'kuya' for males and 'ate' for females. These terms do not have direct
translations into English.
