Culture Clash

A culture clash is when different cultures disagree about there believe or way of life, it means that they have different forms to think about their behaviour and a lot of several things.
We can found many types of culture clash, here we can see one of them.

- How we communicate:

There are many cultures in which people are very open and direct, they say exactly what they think and there are no hidden messages, but there are other cultures in which people are more reserved and they follow certain principles of  politeness. In the UK people are in the middle of these two different ways to express, they prefer to be indirect if they think that what they are trying to say would be a bit rude or the other person will not understand.

Now I'm going to give you an example of this.

- If you are from the UK and you use the irony in other country where people do not use this type of way to express themselves, they will understand your message literally.
I chose this example because is short and easy to understand, also because many of the people in this country use irony. I never had an experience of this but I think that there are some people here in Chile who don't understan de irony or are not agree with its use, so it is very important to know well the person before using irony because it could bring you many problems.
