Culture
is the
way
of life of a particular set of people and it is believed by some that the most effective method of understanding other cultures is by working for an international organization.
However
, I completely disagree with
this
view because they are several other ways to get accustomed to other cultures which includes
learning from the
internet
and migration.
To begin
, I tend to disagree that the most preferable
way
to understanding a new
culture
is working for an international organization because most organizations have an official
language
that is
being spoken.
Although
many people hail from different countries to work
these kind of companies, yet it is almost always basically for official purpose and there may not be time for social activities.
Hence
, the
language
spoken and mode of dressing might have to be official as well,
therefore
,
this
is likely not to give maximum opportunity to learn other important aspects of
culture
one
is interested in. For
this
reason, not possibly is
this
the best method of getting accustomed to other cultures.
Nevertheless
, I believe that the
internet
is a better means of learning
otherany of various alternatives; some other
culture
.
One
can easily browse the
internet
, search for and get useful information about the
culture
to be understood;
language
, food, dressing and other non-material aspect.
Furthermore
, the use of the social media sites
such
as WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram, to mention a few, could
also
be beneficial. Easy will it be to find and make friends with foreign citizens, chat with them and get useful and detailed information about all aspects of their
culture
. By and large,
this
is
one
easy
way
of learning and understand other cultures.
Finally
, my most compelling argument is to immerse and acclimatize oneself in a foreign country and
this
can be achieved through migration. With
this
,
one
would be able to learn evidently and adjust fully to the new environment and
culture
being learned.
This
is possibly the best
way
of learning a foreign
culture
.
In
although
working for a multinational establishment could expose
one
to learning a foreign
language
, I strongly believe that it is not
such
an effective method as perusing the
internet
and social media sites to source for information or getting fully acclimatized in the foreign country through migration.
