It is clear that living in a foreign
country

 has its own benefits and drawbacks to consider. I agree with
this

 statement.

 I think that anybody coming from another
country

 should respect the national culture. In
this
Linking Words
 essay, I would like to outline the social and practical problems. The social
problem
Use synonyms
 would be a
language
Use synonyms
 barrier, which means that a
person
Use synonyms
 coming from another
country
Use synonyms
 might not be able to speak and understand the
language
Use synonyms
 which might be a
problem
Use synonyms
 as far as a
person
Use synonyms
 who is living in a
country
Use synonyms
, and a
person
Use synonyms
 who came to the
country
Use synonyms
. Another
problem
Use synonyms
 is linked to the
language
Use synonyms
 barrier, but it might influence the behaviour of others. An individual who comes into the
country
Use synonyms
 might offend others with their behaviour and
language
Use synonyms
.
For example
Linking Words
, in some
cultures
Use synonyms
 like English
people
Use synonyms
 prefer to be very polite and say things differently from other
cultures
Use synonyms
.
Therefore

, a
person
Use synonyms
 who doesn’t know how to behave in a particular culture might offend others around him. The practical
problem
Use synonyms
 would be a misunderstanding of culture. That means that a
person
Use synonyms
 who visits other countries does not understand other
cultures
Use synonyms
 and he behaves as he wants to. The
second

 practical
problem
Use synonyms
 is finding a job. An individual who works in a foreign
country
Use synonyms
 might not be appropriate for the
people

 whom he serves.
For example

, if individual works in a restaurant, the
people
Use synonyms
 who live in a
country
Use synonyms
 and were born in that
country
Use synonyms
 might not respect and not like the behaviour of a
person
Use synonyms
 who works in a restaurant, it might be because

 the
cultures

 are different. To summarize, it can be said that there are a lot of misconceptions which
people

 have when they come to a foreign

, and in my opinion and from my personal experience
people

 should educate themselves in order to know how to behave in different situations with different
cultures
