Name five ways American phrases that could offend the people of India?

as Hindu's worship Lord Shiva who is one of the 3 administrators (Lords Shiva, Vishnu and Brahman) and Shiva rides upon a cow the animal is considered sacred in India and to Hindu's so don't ever call someone a 'cow' in front of a Hindu person or they will be really offended..
also don't speak badly of your parents or siblings to a Hindu person.. they really revere their parents and even lean down and touch the feet of their guru, pundit, parents and elders in show of respect as should you if you are with said Hindu person
most Hindu's don't swear.. it would be offensive to swear or use foul language in front of them especially the older generation..
partaking in too much alcohol is also offensive to many Hindu's particularly a woman doing so.. it is more common for men to have drinks but too become drunk and act silly would be looked down upon at a social occasion..
don't prepare beef for Hindu's or in the company of them.. it is really offensive to them and they are generally polite but would (and should) never eat it.. most Hindu's avoid meat altogether although unfortunately many westerners are eating more of it and heaven help me i have met Brahman's who confess they are eating beef!!
avoid cursing in the name of God, Lord, even Jesus.. my boyfriend is Hindu and crosses himself when he goes by a church as he respects all religions..
in general if most of us behaved more like Hindu's and Buddhists the world would be a much more amenable place.. hope this helps
