Culture


 I think that the culture is group of important aspects that people of countries, towns or cities share like beliefs, traditions, foods, language, jobs etc.

The language is very important aspect in the culture because it is the faculty that use people for express and transmit their thinking. Is important studying the language of some places because I can understand the lifestyle, thinking and activities that people do.

The Costa Rican culture is very interesting for foreigners because it has important aspects like the conservation of nature, the little pollution, archaeological heritage and personal values like friendship, charity, respect, etc.  Costa Rican culture also has bad aspects like thefts, social problems like drug addiction and prostitution that affect to foreigners that visit Costa Rica.
 
I like of the American Culture the punctuality; American people start the activities on time instead in Costa Rican people forever start late the activities because people arrive late too. 


I like of the Costa Rican Culture the conservation of nature because it is a very important aspect for the future of the world and next generations.  


In Costa Rican Culture I would change aspects like punctuality and the vagrancy, because these aspects affect the development of the country.

  1. Hi Juan José,

    Nice work! You're improving in your writing, I think. I hope you feel the same way!

    A few comments:

    1- In a few places you're using a weird word order. For example, you say "I like of the American culture the punctuality." How can your re-phrase that to make it more natural?

    2- At the beginning, you mentioned why language is important to learning about culture, but the question asked why culture was important to learning language. Does that change your answer any?

    3- What do you dislike about American culture?

    Thanks again for your thoughts, and I'll look back here for your response, as well as for your classmates' comments.

    Take care,
    Ryan
