1, Are feelings, emotions and facial expressions universal across borders, happy, sad, etc..?
We have nonverbal communication each other but there are no border. When we feel happy, we smile. When we feel sad, we cry or down eyes.


2, Try to name as many feelings as possible in Japanese. ( 10 minimum) Then, write the English translation.

幸せ(●´艸`)♡               happy            
寂しい(・ε・`*) ...                lonely
疲れた_ ̄○i              tired        
嬉しい(๑→‿ฺ←๑)                glad
落ち着く(*´I`*)               calm        
緊張する;´Д`);´Д`);´Д`)         nervous
眠たい(。-ω-)。。ooO             sleepy

1. How do you greet members of your family? (mother, father, older brother, younger brother, grandparents, etc.)
If I greet my family, I just say "Good morning." and "Good night". Sometimes I don't say but I touch them to talking.

2. How do you greet people that are important in society?
For me, important person in my society is teachers. We greet them say "Good morning.", "Hallo.", "Good evening." but I pay my respect to them.

3. Do you greet people from the opposite sex in a different way?
Sometimes I may greet different because I love or hate him. I think I also change my attitude.

4. Do you hug anyone? If yes, who and when. If no, why not?
No.

Because that is not usual greeting style in Japan.
