A comparative study of Chinese and Russian banquet customs from the perspective of linguistic personality theory

starting from the perspective of linguistic personality theory, this study provides an in-depth comparative analysis of the banqueting customs of China and Russia. By exploring the differences between the two countries in terms of banquet etiquette, linguistic expressions and cultural connotations, it reveals the performance and role of linguistic personality in cross-cultural communication. It is found that Chinese banquet customs focus on etiquette and modesty and emphasize group harmony, while Russian banquet customs are more direct and open, emphasizing individual expression and interaction. These differences reflect the unique cultural backgrounds and social values of the two countries, suggesting that understanding and respecting linguistic individuality in cross-cultural communication is important for promoting effective communication and reducing cultural misunderstandings.
