What is Culture?


My definition – In my opinion, I think that culture means the traditional beliefs and everything about my country that includes food, buildings, people and traditional things like clothes. All of that is combined together to form a culture about a specific country. It also identifies a person. For example, where is he/she from? What are their beliefs?  What is their traditional food and clothes? A culture is what makes me who I am right now.

Real Definition 1 – As Carla (2013) reported that culture is defined as a unified ways of behaviour that are repeated, communicated, producing emotional thinking and make differences between different groups.

My opinion of definition 1 – I don’t think that it is a good definition because it doesn’t explain the word culture well enough and it didn’t even give examples of what they are saying. They used a very formal academic language. Some people won’t understand these academic hard words and vocabulary, so it will be so difficult for them to understand the meaning well enough.

Real definition 2 – According to Zimmermann and Contributor (2012) they stated “Culture is the characteristics of a particular group of people, defined by everything from language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts.”

My opinion of definition 2 – I think that this definition is more likely for people to understand well enough because they didn’t use a formal language or any hard vocabulary. So even international students all around the world if they read it they will understand the meaning.  They also gave some examples of cultures characteristics.
