    Everyone can make different assumptions because people are raised in different environments and cultures. Last year, the author's Korean friend visited Japan and commented that holding a plate while eating showed poor manners, which contradicted the author's understanding that not holding the plate was rude in Japanese culture. They both learned that even neighboring countries can have differences in social manners.

    1. Everyone can make different assumption because people spend their lives
    at different places, in different environments and in different ways. Also
    we have many different cultures all over the world and grow up with
    these cultures or in certain society and certain group. That makes us
    think ourselves right. So people especially who are from different places
    think things in different ways. And that results intercultural
    communication.
    2. Last year, my Korean friend came to Japan to visit me. We went to a
    restaurant to eat Japanese food. When I ate with holding my plate, she
    told me not to do that because it meant that I had no manners. But in
    Japan, if a person eat food without holding plate, it means he has no
    manners. Then I found out that we have different manners even though
    Korean is a neighboring country. Not only I but she could learn about our
    difference of manners.
