G：Gibson 吉布森 W：Williams 威廉斯

G：Williams, do you have any red envelopes

W：I still have one left. Why do you need it

G：My Japanese friend will get married in Japan next week, and I will attend her wedding.

W：Japan If you attend her wedding, you can't use the red envelope. Japanese don't give their friends red envelopes in a wedding.

G：Then what should I do

W：Every country has different customs. In Japan, they use white envelopes. Of course itis different from the white envelope we use in Taiwan. We only use white envelopes when we attend a funeral.

G：I see. Then I will buy that kind of envelope when I arrive in Japan.

W：Don't forget to write down the names of your friend and her husband on the envelope. This is also Japanese custom.



吉布森：威廉斯，你有紅包嗎？

威廉斯：我還有一個。你為什麼要紅包？

吉布森：我朋友下個禮拜要在日本結婚，我要出席她的婚禮。

威廉斯：日本？如果你要出席婚禮，那你不能用紅包。日本人在婚禮上是不給朋友紅包的。

吉布森：那我該怎麼做？

威廉斯：每個國家都有不同的習俗。在日本，他們用的是白包。當然那跟我們在台灣用的白包是不一樣的。我們只有在喪事才用白包。

吉布森：了解。那麼我到了日本之後再去買那種白包。

威廉斯：別忘了在白包上寫上你的朋友跟她老公的名字。這也是日本的習俗。
