Today, in many parts of the world, it is customary for people to shake
hands upon meeting as a gesture of good will. Originally, however, the
practice of shaking hands had more practical purposes.

Shaking hands originated in medieval times. In those days, when a man

came on a stranger, he would often automatically reach for his sword with
his right hand, in case he had to use the weapon to defend himself.
Sometimes, both parties found themselves circling around each other,
weapons in hand, until it was mutually agreed that the weapons could be
laid aside. Then the two parties extended their right hands to show they
had no weapons, and clasped them. This was the beginning of the
handshake.
The custom of shaking hands is not a universal one. In the orient,
people have for centuries, clasped their own in front of them upon meeting
to show that they held no weapons. In France, a custom developed in which
people who met would kiss each other on both cheeks. The natives of some
South Seas islands greet each other by rubbing noses.
Note: clasp (v): nắm chặt, siết chột.
