Another example is the smile. As a common facial expression, it may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise(掩饰) true feelings. But in different cultures. smiles have different meanings.

In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment. Vietnamese people may tell the sad story of how they had to leave their country but end the story with a smile.
