Culture

        Today in class we went over a power point all about culture. We learned about all the things culture does and how it links and or divides people/regions together. We also looked at a map of how people all over america differentiate on how they refer to soft drinks. Many places in the west called it pop, others called it soda, and other just called every type of soda coke, even if it was not actual coca cola, which I find in of strange, and other people that call it pop or coke would think it is weird that I refer to it as soda. One big part of culture that links people together is their language. Most countries have one main language that is spoken among people so it allows them to communicate with each other. English is such a well know language that it is the language of the world, it is used it world wide business trade and it is usually the second language taught in non english countries.
