the most blatant changes to Japan’s culture comes from changes to Japanese linguistics. These changes tend to shift traditional Japanese language to a more Westernized, English type. Japanese communication strategies have shifted in the same manner and words such as “direct,” “competitive,” and “egalitarian” are now used more than ever in the Japanese language, which has, in the past, been more passive. In decision making, a more dominant approach is becoming more common in conversations. Now,…

visited the old people, I could always feel they missed their children so much and they actually did not have a happy life in the hospice. Also, I have been to a local public school in a poor area near Beijing and taught the students there English. During the teaching I was moved by the children stories. Most of them have to walk an hour to get to the school. I taught them everything that I could to those children, in order for them to learn…

At home, we spoke a different language, learned to speak another language outside and learned three more languages at school. All these experiences in my formative years have taught me identify and value the commonalities and differences of the human experience. My first experience as a teacher was during my undergraduate years when I tutored…

research a little about the Hmong people and culture. I would have began an initiative to hire and train Hmong people who were former generals in their army and spoke multiple languages as hospital translators.

complex language system. Humans that communicate effectively are more likely to produce surviving offspring. People’s ability to discriminate among different sounds could be a sensitive period. Humans can recognize up to 150 phonemes in communication, no language uses more than 70. This means that many phonemes that are used in various languages around the world are not used in other languages. People are not able to discriminate easily between some phonemes that are not in their own language.…

When deaf people meet other deaf people from foreign countries, it is easier for them to communicate than hearing people. They are able to communicate with improvised and international signs since they share so much in common. I had no idea that deaf people from different countries could “immediately be able to communicate” and was pleasantly surprised. Usually it’s almost impossible to communicate with foreigners if they do not speak English. After reading that, I feel there is more value to…
