Impoliteの例文や意味・使い方に関するQ&A

A: “Please be quiet” is technically polite because they said “Please”, but it depends on the tone of voice.

A: Rude

A: @xXJacobCarlXx Thank you!

A: One I've experienced is sometimes foreigners say "I don't care", meaning they don't have a preference either way; but depends on context and intonation (some people who are not familiar with the English intonation or have a heavy accent can sound upset or very blunt in English when they don't mean to), it could be interpreted as "I don't care about it at all/I don't even want it, don't bother me with it". A safer bet is to say "I don't mind" to avoid misunderstandings.
有时候外国人会说I don't care, 表示“随便”，但是根据语境和语气（有些人掌握不好语气，会听上去很凶），有时候会让人误以为你在说“我根本不在乎/不想要，少拿这个来烦我”。说I don't mind（我不介意）会比较保险，不会发生误解。

A: Rude doesn't mean, impolite, it means overwhelming in a harsh manner. A noise could be rude if it is disturbing the peace or if it goes against social norms. A behavior is rude when it disrupts the way things are done within a gathering of people by being outrageous or ridiculous.
Politeness is the way someone adjusts his behavior in an effort to put the others in his company at ease and to make them comfortable in his presence. Impolite behaviors make people feel uncomfortable in a man's presence or ill at ease in a man's presence.

A: I don’t think it’s impolite to speak on the phone in a cafe. It depends on how loud you speak. It’s ok to speak softly.

A: It should be "I thought it was impolite all over the world."



Verbs need to be the same tense.

"Thought" = past tense of "think"

"It's" = "it + is" or "it + has"

"Is" is the present tense of "to be." You need past tense of "to be"

"Was" is past tense of "to be"

So use "it + was"

There is no short word for "it + was"

So final sentence:

"I thought it was impolite all over the world."

A: It would be considered impolite if it was said to deny entry or service to the subject, but would be acceptable if it was simply being used to explain why a person's attitude or behavior might be different.

A: No, this can be polite. In English, the only second-person pronoun is "you." "You" can be used to refer to people older, younger, and of the same age as you.

A: Nope! "Thanks" is perfectly acceptable everywhere on HiNative. Nobody will think it's impolite. :)

The only time you should say "thank you" specifically is in very formal situations. This is because "thanks" sounds slightly casual.
