Chinese Greetings
鞠躬 jū gōng, Bowing /ˈbaʊ/, to lower the head or upper body as a social gesture
In modern China, bowing is normally reserved for occasions such as wedding ceremonies and also as a gesture of respect for the deceased, although it is still sometimes used for more formal greetings, both when meeting and departing.
![Page 45: Greeting and names 你好! Nĭ hǎoHello 您好! Nín hǎo How do you do? (honorific form)](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081417/56649e2a5503460f94b18ce1/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Chinese Greetings Kowtow, which is borrowed from 叩头 kòu
tóu in Mandarin Chinese, is the act of deep respect shown by kneeling and bowing so low as to have one's head touching the ground.
An alternative Chinese term is 磕头 kē tóu, however the meaning is somewhat altered: kòu has the general meaning of 'knock', whereas kē has the general meaning of "touch upon (a surface)", tóu means head.
The kowtow was traditionally the highest sign of reverence in Chinese culture, but its use has been extremely rare since the collapse of Imperial China.
