Question

Learning about a country’s culture, say America’s is important before we enter the culture.

You know, Americans tend to speak directly.  When they disagree with someone, for example, they will directly express that. It is different from us. We tend to be indirect when saying about what we want.

Second, differences dealing with personal distance. Well, Americans tend to require more personal than we do, which means they don’t like standing too close to the people they are speaking to. This might be offending, but actually... it’s an Americans custom. When someone feels you are standing too close, he or she may step back without even thinking about it.

Be careful, we should also consider our conversation topics, especially when we meet them for the first time. For example, we Indonesians tend to be friendly by asking one’s personal data like age, previous or current relationships the first time we meet him/her. It’s normal for us, isn’t it? However, For Americans, it’s considered impolite, especially when ask about age, like “How old are you?” previous or current relationship, for example:” Do you have a girlfriend?”, “Are you married?” appearance or weight, for example:”What’s your weight?” and “You look so fat now, Do you gain much weight?” etc.

Thus, we can say that we need to know the culture of a country before going there.
