异国文化
每个国家都有自己的文化,每个种族也有自己的文化,甚至每个家庭都可以有不一样的文化。
I would later find out this is a common theme in Japanese culture. Most Japanese people choose to avoid confrontation, and prefer to complain about you when you’re not around. This is distasteful to me as a Westerner, but as a resident of Japan it’s something I have to respect and understand. Now I have a much higher tolerance and understanding of this kind of behaviour, but it was a big culture-shock for me when I first came over.

这是一位澳洲人去日本居住时,为了能继续在日本生存,所以就教英文。他被告知需要在第二个课堂上准备一套课程,虽然准备了,可是由于上课人数太少所以他并没有以他计划的教学。日本人基于礼貌面子上的关系,所以对这为澳洲人客客气气的,背后与老板投诉。结果这为澳洲人被炒鱿鱼了,觉得日本人这行为很卑劣。
日本人这样的行为在澳洲人眼里是不礼貌的,可是澳洲人希望他们当面讲的做法,在日本人眼里是不礼貌的。不同文化的人住在一起,原本就很容易起冲突,如果不尝试了解对方,就算你们相处再久也是没用的。
