To sum up, Madagascar and Colombia as all countries have differences referring to their culture and attitudes but are the similarities which make them interesting. It is important to mention and explain a few differences to contextualize the reader, those differences are related to how people greet, actions that they do at the table, and how they refer to others with their fingers. On the other hand, the similarities that were mentioned show that both cultures have a lot of things in common although were on completely different sides of the world, these similarities are related with the respect that people have to older people, to foreign, and how they wish luck to people in particular forms. Other interesting similarities were to avoid eating meat in certain moments and places, the importance of rice and the food variety. There are a lot more contrast and similitudes between these countries and by showing these characteristics the intention is that the reader takes interest in both countries and their culture.
1. I thought it was an excellent essay and I like the way you address the differences between the two countries you compare.
ResponderEliminar2. I find this topic you address amazing. I think that each country is a completely different world and each behavior and customs that each country has are really very important as they help determine what they are and represent.
3. Do you think it would really affect personal relationships in Colombia if people constantly pointed fingers at each other? Would you like to be pointed out in some way without being offensive in Colombia?
4. I completely agree with the way you share your opinions about manners and customs, more specifically on the topic of frequent greetings, and I find several aspects that we have in common with other countries really interesting. I disagree and I would like to add that apart from respect, many times education is very important and plays a very important role in the behavior of each country.
5. It seemed like a very good job to me but I think you could remove the images that are between each paragraph to be able to read continuously and not lose the thread of what you say in each paragraph
