China And The United States

The language of our people is English, like Americans, and Mandarin, due to Chinese influence. English is taught in the beginning of a child's school experience up until graduation.

Currently, there are an estimated 64 million speakers of Cantonese compared to the 1 million Taishanese speakers in Taishan and over 1.3 million Taishanese speakers in other places such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.

Unlike me, some people are fluent in more than one language, and because of that, there are a lot of languages spoken in each country. In the United States that are about 350 languages, but primarily English.. In Europe, there are also many different languages spoken. In the book most people speak English. Throughout the book, the technology was different.

The differences we see may be due to the fractured western society when compared to a unified East where a common language is developed making Chinese similar to the Romance languages. Rome collapsed and created a vacuum that was filled by the very barbarians they fought. The only unification in the West was the Catholic Church while China maintained a dynastic system which maintained a political stability. The fractured society in the West compared to the East is the biggest difference where in the West competition in the later period of history created

The Chinese alphabet is very different from the others because characters represent whole ideas, concepts, or words. The dialect does not determine the symbols to be used and they are uniform throughout the different dialects. Chinese people speak the Mandarin and Cantonese. Cantonese dialect happens to be common and it is mainly spoken in the south while Mandarin is common in the northern part of the country. It is worth noting that a dialect is the way words are pronounced but not how they are written. Moreover, it is

The decade before World War II saw economic depression grip the most powerful nations on the world. The United States and Japan were no exceptions to this, with one major difference. As an island nation, Japan lacked the resources and raw materials necessary to expand its military and heavy industry, a popular strategy for ending depression and stimulating economic recovery and expansion. As such, Japan turned to military conquest and imperialism to gather the necessary resources. Standing in the way was an impediment long-seen as an obstacle to the Japanese military leadership – the United States. The oil embargo enacted under President Franklin Roosevelt, preventing Japan from receiving oil exports from its largest supplier, proved to be a tipping point that coalesced military strategy around the need to bring war to the American homeland. Along with its overly-ambitious military hopes in the quest to expand an empire recovering from economic depression and in dire need of resources and raw materials, the Japanese leaders underestimated the will of the Unites States and its allies in fighting a war against their aggression. Mistaking isolationist tendencies for “softness,” the Japanese failed to consider the rallying effect Pearl Harbor would have on the American spirit, ultimately catalyzing the transformation of the United States from an isolationist power to the protector of democracy around the world.

On the day of December 7,1941, a tragic event took place. And the name of it is Pearl Harbor, the surprise attack of the Japanese fleets on the U.S. city of Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. This takes place with two rivaling countries, Japan & the United States. This paper will give detail on this tragic event, and how it will end.

Like Athens and Sparta, were the United States and China drawn into a war neither power wanted because of their alliances?

China is a country of ancient culture with customs and values ​​considered exotic for us Westerners. The Chinese write vertically and read back forward. The colour and the numbers for the Chinese all have a symbology for example, in China white is considered the colour of mourning, it is not recommended to use yellow clothes, because the colour symbolizes sex, and number four sounds like death and should be avoided. Already cooking

Whenever a company is entering a new market it has to take into consideration the cultural differences between countries. Based on the case study analysis, the difference between the two countries in terms of eating out habits and eating preferences seem not to be understood by the Denver headquarter. Denver headquarter believes that it can enforce the same business model applied in the U.S to its stores in China, regardless of local preference. In addition, Foster seems to lack knowledge about the Chinese culture because she was not familiar with the market in China, as she had no experience working internationally. There was a lack of cross-cultural communication between Chen and Foster; even though, Chen had experienced both cultures while studying abroad in the U.S.

The three churches mentioned above are mainly using Chinese and Cantonese. The last kind of Chinese Christianity mentioned in lee's article was founded by ABCs, and they mainly use English in the church. Their members are not only Chinese but also other Asian.

The United States and India are both democratic nations that historically have had racial divisions and apartheid, which is apparent in the social, political and economic developments of the two countries. These racial divisions and apartheid have directly impacted the development of the nations, thus shaping the way the current day states and its people function. Apartheid is a “policy of racial segregation and economic discrimination against non-European”. (Merriam-Webster, 2014) This definition of apartheid is quite relatable in impacting the cases of political, social and economic growth. For example, in the Unites States, the arrival of the European colonists caused there to be discrimination against the Native Americans. Thus segregating them, resulting in the remaining population becoming raped, killed, diseased and forced to migrate to the West. These historical events have indirectly impacted the social development of the Native American population as a whole. Present day Native Americans have developed their societies through these divisions. They are still discriminated against and in some cases, a specific one being of the lack of education funds provided for Native American schools amongst the nation. With there being “The federal government is responsible for 183 native American schools across 23 states” and in ensuring an equalitarian learning system. (Mic, 2014) But so far has not yet done so. Social issues amongst Native American school equality

National economics are often adversarial in nature, a global contest where countries seek to gain advantage over their neighbors, all in the name of wealth and gain. America is no stranger to the game; the U.S. has been the world’s economic leader for the better part of a century. China, however, is the leading contender for the economic top-spot (), and America continues playing directly into China’s hand. America’s current trading posture with China is drastically skewed in China’s favor; if America is going to preserve its position as the leading economic power, existing U.S.-Chinese trading agreements will need to be revised, and additional regulations must be introduced to promote balanced dealing.

The spoken language for each culture had also been in place long before any written language had been developed. To the outside listener, the three spoken languages may seem similar at first sight, but a speaker of one of the languages will agree that Chinese is completely different from Korean and Japanese. There is good reason for this too, as Chinese belongs to a family of languages known as the Sino-Tibetan family. Sino-Tibetan languages are all monosyllabic and tonal. This means that every spoken word only consists of a single syllable: more complex words are created by stringing together multiple words.

The United States and China aspire to command the world economy, but their lifestyle and standpoints look like east and west. When comparing the U.S. and China in Hofstede 6 dimensions model, there were four main dimensions that are strikingly distinctive. These dimensions include individualism, power distance, long-term orientation, and indulgence. Recognizing cultural differences is the first step towards understanding each other. The difference between the United States and China are pronounced, and they merit rigorous examination.
