[quote=ETTYB,288244]When we were in Langde, Guizhou Province, in October, which is populated mainly by Miao and Dong minorities, we passed an open building where a funeral was going on. Everyone was dressed in black, (although that may have been their normal clothes color), and you could hear the sound of mourning. When we asked our guide what was going on, she said someone had died and that it was a funeral service. Perhaps, each ethnic group expresses their grief and the final arrangements in their own way. I think a simple expression of sympathy in a card would be acceptable to anyone, anywhere.[/quote]
