Cross cultural communication

seriál :: Language corner

„Each person's map of the world is as unique as the person's thumbprint. There are no two people alike. No two people who understand the same sentence the same way… So in dealing with people, you try not to fit them to your concept of what they should be“, MILTON ERICKSON

A variety of cross cultural communication problems can arise not only at schools; you can find them in today´s world almost everywhere. This might be also why the wars and battles occure. Problems often result from misunderstandings and conflicts are evoked between people who are obeying different culturally based communication rules.

We all are distinguished and united by differences and similarities according to gender, age, language, culture, race, sexual identity, and income level - just to name a few. Such diversity challenges our intellect and emotions as we learn to work and live together in harmony.

Problems usually arise when cultures are mixed and when ideologies let people darken their mind! There are absurd misunderdings and needles bloody struggles between people in nowadays life. We should more think of other people and prevent differences in opinion and don´t be pulled down by prejudice again minorities, people with other color of skin or with other belief.

The communication across cultures is very important and if we don´t want to suffer from future eyeball confrontation and conflicts we are obliged to listen to others.

Each culture consists of various aspects, which mutually seek and meet each other and if we want to try to understand other people, it is sometimes necessary to give up our habits and to learn to control our own self to could create friendship, solidarity, respect and reciprocal recognition.

If people want to understand each other, they cannot discriminate some nationalities, language or religion. They have to create a sort of a “bridge” among people from all over the world and search a common language that could help in the process of convergence among all of various nations and cultures and also to strike up new friendships among people from the whole world.
