Cultural Background

在中国文化中，介绍家人通常会先介绍长辈，再介绍晚辈；介绍夫妻时，通常先介绍丈夫，再介绍妻子。
拼音
English
In Chinese culture, when introducing family members, it's customary to introduce the elders first, followed by the younger generation. When introducing a married couple, it is usually the husband who is introduced first, then the wife.
In English-speaking countries, the order of introducing family members is generally less strict than in Chinese culture. However, it is still polite to introduce the most important people first.
In formal situations, such as a business meeting, it is important to be respectful and professional in your introduction. In informal situations, you can be more relaxed.
