En annan sak man ska undvika är att rikta handflatan mot andra personer! Och absolut inte "stöta" med handflatan mot andra. Det är en grov förolämpling. Jag har ingen aning om varför men så är det.

Misstänker att det du menar är en moutza.

A "moutza", or mountza, (μούντζα) is the most traditional gesture of insult among Greeks which consists of extending all fingers and presenting the palm towards the to-be-insulted person in a forward motion. It is often coupled with the expletives "να" (na), "παρ'τα" (par'ta) or "όρσε" (órse), meaning "here", "take these" and "there you go", respectively.
An even more offensive version is achieved by using both hands to double the gesture, smacking the palm of one hand against the back of the other, in the direction of the intended recipient.

The origin of the gesture can be traced back to the penal code of Byzantium, whereby a chained criminal was paraded around town sitting, facing backwards, on a donkey and with their face smeared with cinder to enhance their ridicule. Cinder in medieval Greek was called moutzos (μούντζος). And, because cinder was wiped on the person's face first by collecting it in the palm and then by extending open the fingers, the gesture itself became insulting, to be known as moutza, after the name of the material applied. The modern Greek word "moutzoura" or "mountzoura" (a smear or dark stain) has the same origin.

Vet inte om du tyckte detta var lika spännande som jag när jag fick reda på det kollade jag upp gesten på wikipedia o ja, här är resultatet.
Det står mer i länken om du är riktigt nyfiken!
