The only universal language..

[DragonsGrief]

Is the human face.

No matter what culture, what location, if you are happy, you will smile. And so forth.

What do you think of this?

[Achilles2]

Some people are born without faces. I remember seeing a picture of a Nazi Soldier like this.

Actually, in Japan people are discouraged to show their emotions when in the same room as any elders.

[kjhf]

Some people may be happy but don't smile anyway...
Other people may be sad but show "happiness" anyway.

These people are weird.

[BigFuzzyKitten]

We beg to differ.

also the women who have to wear burkas, but where you can see only their eyes

[xXMajuniorXx]

Really? When I'm happy I punch babies.

[NeonFlame126]

Sing language is universal. HA!

[Rig]

Music is - it's found in every culture.

That's like the idea of abstaining from speaking even when the thought runs across your mind. It doesn't mean they wouldn't do it.

Japan enforces discipline and respect in children to elders, but not catatonia.

[TheHardcoreDave]

Smiles are for fags.

Ummm, that was under Taliban Afghanistan. Not even extreme Muslim such as the Salafis like Burqas.

Let's see if the Greeks understand Green Day lyrics.

If they only speak Greek, then they probably won't understand it. But everyone would know that Lux Aeterna is a depressing-type of song.

[Sanch]

No, tits are.

Not exactly, there are some culture-specific gestures.

[MayonnaiseSlong]

Surely everyone speaks Interworld by now?

[Rucklo]

I'd like to broaden that thought to body-language. Music, like Rig said, can be interpret differently in different cultures - western people can have a hard time finding oriental song appealing. I know i've a hard time with that, anyway...

bodylanguage, on the other hand, will be understood by pretty much anyone, even if they're japanese stonfaces.

[super-sense]

I though the answer was going to be sex. Not in the immature 13-year-old way, but the fact that in every culture around the world people have sex.
