• It makes me equal that we have the same value, same rights.

And it makes me different the way I see the things and my
way of being.

carried out in the same campus of Tecmilenio University?
Why?

other countries and would bring greater diversity in the

 PART 2

• What do you think is the reason for this difference in vocabulary?

• The people with whom we live and the times, since new words are invented over time, it also changes due to the city
in which we were born or live.

• Think about the people of your generation and comment: what types of slangs do you use often?
what do you think about them?.
• They are mostly a bit rude words, very different from what was used before. In my opinion, they are very common
words among adolescents or people my age since I have learned several with other people my age.
 LIST OF WORDS THAT MEAN SOMETHING
DIFFERENT IN OTHER CITIES
• Taco • Machete
• Lola • Goma
• Piña • Torta
• Buzo • Jincho
• Cajeta • Buseta
• Saco • Polla
• Bolsa • Chongo
• Chaqueta
• Do you think that Mexican society speaks the same or differently
throughout the republic? what do you base your comment on? can you
mention an example?
• In my opinion it is not spoken in the same way, since in each city or
state different terms are used that are not used in all states. An
example of this would be the word "plebe" which is commonly used
in the north.
• Mention the typical dishes of your city, and compare them with those of 2
other cities you know
• Typical dishes of tabasco
• Pejelagarto
• Puchero: Here in tabasco, we prepare it with meat, pumpkin,
potatoes and other things

 OTHERNESS

the diversity of others.

continuous direct contact between two
groups. This contact can alter the cultural
patterns of each group or both,

to which all human beings are
exposed

two groups through marriage
and help maintain
relationships and social
solidarity in groups larger
than the nuclear family.
 WHY DO YOU THINK
THESE 4 CONCEPTS ARE
IMPORTANT FOR THE
ANTHROPOLOGICAL
STUDY?

BECAUSE THEY ARE KEY CONCEPTS

THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE
UNDERSTANDING OF
ANTHROPOLOGICAL THEORY. 
WHAT IS YOUR OPINION
ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF
ANTHROPOLOGICAL WORK

IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT IS
AN ESSENTIAL WAY TO

THE HUMAN BEHAVIOR AND
EVOLUTION, ANALYZING
THEIR LIFESTYLE.
