Customs and traditions
When a particular gesture,
behavior, event, or act is
repeatedly performed, it becomes
a custom. When this is done for a
long time and passed down to
future generations, it becomes a
tradition. Customs are common
social practices that are followed
by the majority of people in a
society.
 British culture
British culture is a beautiful and unique mix of four
countries: England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern
Ireland. The mix of all these countries’ traditions is what
makes the British culture very rich and diverse and what
they like to call “cultural capital.”
British people like to think of themselves as people with
class and great taste, whether about food, clothing,
music, or movies
Language in England
English, in various dialects, is the most widely
spoken language of the United Kingdom, but
a number of regional and migrant languages English
are also spoken. Regional indigenous Welsh
languages are Scots and Ulster Scots and the Scottish Gaelic

There are also many languages spoken by Irish
immigrants who arrived recently to the United Ulster Scot
Kingdom, mainly within inner city areas; these
languages are mainly from continental
Europe and South Asia
Humour, tradition, and good manners are
characteristics commonly associated with

tea is
like a warm
blanket
for the soul."
 There’s hardly a more British custom
