Look for concrete example how language reflect culture


Language is not only words but also pronunciations, tone and particular dialects.
All of these parts of a language are shaped by culture. Language is created and shaped by
the needs of a culture as it changes. Culture is intrinsic to language, languages relates
common experiences and backgrounds, and these histories, in turn, create words specific
to our culture. Understanding the words without understanding the culture may not be
enough for comprehension. This means that language and culture are fluids, shifting to
reflect one another and the changing landscape of the world.
Language and culture are intertwined. A particular language usually points out to
a specific group of people. Language it means that you are also interacting with the
culture that speaks the language. You cannot understand one’s culture without accessing
its language.

2. Research example of word from different languages that express concept, important to
people who speak those language.
 Bao qian (Chinese)
Another way to say sorry in Chinese (bao) means hold, 9qian) means regret. It
means typically a word you’ll use to apologize for things you’ve done and feel
bad about.
 Ti Voglio bene (Italian)
In English, you jump straight from liking someone to loving them. But there a
much bigger spectrum of human emotions that and I think many people overuse
“I love you” because of it.
In another languages, there’s a modway point. These are usually translated as “I
Love You” in English, but each of thes language have an event deeper and
definitely romantic” I love you” that goes a level above these.
 Anteayer (Spanish)
The day before yesterday. Once you hear this word, you can’t help but realize that
you’ve been missing it your whole life.

3. Relate or give an experienced how will you respond to invitation or request when
doesn’t plan to attend or event typical way of saying No.
I know that rejecting to someone is painful but it is a normal to every individual
we need to accept and always think positive because there are also people who will
accept us.
If a one person give me an invitation to attend an event I will say that I don’t have
a plan to attend an event but in a typical way of saying No. first of all I thank you for
giving me an invitation and I appreciate it so much but I don’t want to get angry I would
have to apologize for not being able to attend and event, because I am not ready to attend
thus event and I have an important meeting that we need to finish it, and I hope that you
understand my explanation why I cant go to an event, and I wish that don’t hesitate for
giving an invitation, because I promise to you if my schedule is free I will choose to
attend your invitation. Thank you and hopefully that you enjoy and this event will be
successful.
