Cultural Differences Contents Created


A web page has been added that documents observations about life in China. This info graphic depicts cultural differences regarding "respect." Other themes, including politics, transportation, and family, can be found on the "Cultural Differences" page of the Mandarin Chinese Language Guide at https://guides.lib.ku.edu/mandarin/culturaldifferences 

"It is important to remember that there are more differences between individuals than between different cultures. The following is a collection of generalizations that are helpful to know but certainly do not apply to every single person, place, or situation. China is a large country and customs are different among different people, places, and ethnic groups."


* The language guide on the website was created by KU linguistic anthropology graduate student, Laura Searcy.
