Cultural Differences In American

Have you ever wondered how High Schools are in other countries? Despite sharing some minor similarities, the differences between Nicaraguan and American High School education are clear. Such as, note-taking methods, grading system, classroom environment.

Because my neighbor is considered suburban it often gets a bad rep. A lot of people think that suburbs are boring and aren't interesting. As this suggests, the problem is also cultural. For the most part, American culture and opinion are still created, even in the Internet age, in cities at either edge of the continent. If intellectuals do deign to look at the suburbs they assume that so much banality must be hiding something deeply

The culture and values of the United States and India have many differences. As you know, the culture of the United States is mixed with diverse cultures. But in India, it has its own culture and value. At the base, I would like to compare and contrast the child rearing- Bedtime, Discipline, and Emphasis on Independence- between the United States and India.

Over the past 100 years, the United States has changed the way it views other cultures including more respect, equality, and freedom for all people. As much as America has grown, has America really changed that drastically? Across the nation and world, cultural differences still exist, misunderstandings continue, and fighting persists. Recent attacks within the United States that are similar to the conflicts between the Japanese and Americans in the early 1900’s include the 9/11 attack, the bombing at the Boston Marathon, and the mass shooting in Orlando.

The author tried comparing cultures and saying how one specific would have a different meaning than the other. The author could have done better supporting his main idea with better textual evidence that did not come off as stereotypical. For example he tried comparing Hispanics, Chinese, and the Americans. One example from the text that came off as a bit stereotypical was when he made a comment about the Hispanic woman. Rodriguez said “Hispanic woman are hired to be at the center of the American family- to babysit and diaper, to cook and clean and to ease the dying” (261). Not all Hispanic woman come to America to work that way therefore the author was being a bit stereotypical.

Based on my experience in Eastern Europe and in North America, I fully embrace both Serbian and the different cultures that are in Canada. In the summer, I try to go to as many Serbian events as possible and at these events, there is traditional music, food and dancing which I enjoy so much. Unfortunately, I have not gone to many events of different cultures but I do like to educate myself about different customs and traditions in order to build on my awareness and knowledge of different types of cultures. I am Christian Orthodox in which I celebrate Christmas on January 7th and I always enjoy going to the church services for this Christmas celebration. Also, I fast where I do not eat dairy or meat products for a few weeks before Easter and

Often, I consider whether there are other living creatures around that we have not yet found. A while prior I had a thought to investigate the universe all the more intently. In light of my interest, I recently went by an irregular planet called Earth. As I landed on Earth, everything was extraordinary; it was as though I was trapped in a snow globe all my life and did not know anything past. Consequently, I felt ecstasy as I walked through a narrow pavement exploring the nature around me. Our own particular planet varies in a wide range of viewpoints. In addition, there are frequent significant differences in other living creatures. I observed a common species and examined them well; they refer to themselves as humans, more specifically Americans.

Around the world there are multiple different cultures not just American culture so to say that American culture is generalizable to other cultures is wrong because cultures around the world are all different however, culture is also shared and while culture is shared, there is not only one culture that everyone shares. Culture creates the behaviors of individuals understandable to other people in the group. Furthermore, generalization is how well the results can be applied to the population being measured and if the experiment is not generalizable, then the results will not refer to the population being measure. In addition, the generalization of other cultures could either push back psychology or move it forward and that is what Haeffel and Arnett are arguing about.

I was six year old when I was uprooted from my village in Punjab, India. I was anxious to see the promised land, as my parents had referred to it. My father left for America before I was born so he could obtain a labor job to save up money for when my mother, brother, and I would arrive. I never expected my beliefs and perspectives to change upon arrival. Growing up in a very uniform culture I had a black and white view of the world. In our culture women were responsible for being caretakers. Their job was simply to raise the children, cook, and be domesticated. The men had the role of the breadwinner and they were the ones encouraged to get an education.

Everyone has a different way of life, whether it be by the way you talk, dress, or eat. Or maybe how you dance, sing, and perform. These aspects of everyday life is called culture. Everybody in the world has a culture, but not all cultures are the same from person to person. In the book, The Miles Between, a group of teens, who attend a boarding school, have a different way of life than I do. Even though there is many differences between our cultures, there are still some similarities peeping through all the differences.

Every nations and communities has its own cultures and they are different from each other, here are the differences in the parameters between my culture which is influenced by Vietnamese culture and the USA's culture.

Throughout the different cultures around the world, there are many traditions that have been in place for many years. These traditions have been passed down from generation to generation and are looked at as being normal in these cultures. To the United States, and other parts of the world, some of these traditions are looked at as being crazy, bizarre, and even strange. There are many different cultures and unique traditions associated with them, but these are 5 interesting traditions found around the world.

I was born in Thailand and had seen many changes from time to time. Especially the shopping mall in my country, I always see the American brand names and fast foods which I LOVE in every corner, this makes me used to with American lifestyle. Whereas, some big grocery stores in Thailand were taken over by an American company. Surprisingly, Thailand is just a small developing country in Asia. I agree with the author that Asia is similar to the U.S. ideology, for example; the Asia gets an influence from U.S. culture by foods and clothes, and importantly democracy in political system. Therefore, the author is right about reversing brain drain phenomenon because . . .

While studying in America, I have encountered a meal problem with my host-family because of cultural difference. In China, lunch is the most important and delicious meal for the day. Thus, I was so picky about the food I ate for lunch. However, my host-family neither knew about my culture nor asked me about what kinds of lunch I liked, insisting on making sandwiches for a day to two weeks. One day, I finally had the courage to tell her that I do not want sandwiches anymore; she was unexpectedly confused and told me that sandwiches were typical for American lunch. After that, I was so upset and started to hate sandwiches by throwing them away and complained about my host family to my mom. And, my school life was also filled with unhappy and

Marriage is a bond between a man and a woman. Love is basic affection. How will I distinguish marriage from love? In America to show love and make a marriage a sacred entity, a commencement is prepared to make two become one. In India, this ritual struggle to exist. Marriages in India are just a business negotiation among two clients. I ask, in two countries, can marriage have different meaning? While some differences in marriages between India and the United States are apparent, the similarities are significant.
