BalasHapusOkay everyone. In my opinion, the main topic discussed by the speaker was cross-cultural communication with good impact.
BalasHapusYes, almost the same as your opinion. I think he shared his personal and professional experiences of how very different cultures can successfully coexist with one another.
HapusI agree with you both which is talking about the major of the speaker talking about the different cultures in many countries and give good impact.

BalasHapusPersonally , both of your opinion its similar to me. In the first poin is The major issue is the differentiation of a culture can make an effect the way you appeal/treat other people or what do people believe in their rules of culture. In short how make people comfortable with your appearances but don't defy the rules/culture
BalasHapusNice, i quite agree with this one.
HapusIn my perspective, the speaker, Poliegrino Riccardi, trying to deliver and illustrate How do very different cultures can successfully coexist and get accepted next to each other. in this case, he's using Norwegian behaviour and other nationalities.
BalasHapusSo let me get this straight,i think the keyword is the differentiation and the culture. So we are on the same page here
HapusWe have same opinion here.

BalasHapusAs far as I'm concerned, different cultures are not a barrier for us to communicate between countries, culture shock is normal for someone who goes to another country, but the individual will get used to mingling with the culture in that country.
BalasHapusYes and also there is social phenomenon called "social polarization" which is a phenomenon when a social or a culture or some group of people doing their usual activites that can affect the other
HapusSo guys what about the second point? What the culture he utilize as his major point. Well anyone same thought as me? I think its british,norwegian and italian
BalasHapusI wouldn’t say no. You right that the culture he utilize as his major point is British, Norwegian, and Italian.
HapusThat's true. British, Norwegian, and Italian are appropriate countries as samples of Riccardi culture. The three countries are located close together, but have different ways of treating people. Speaking accents, for example, the accent of a language is seen as positive because it can enrich someone's pronunciation knowledge which makes it interesting.
HapusYes, i think so the culture that the speaker uses to express his opinion is using the culture of Norway and Italian then the speaker communicates using English
HapusYes, that's right. The culture he utilize as his major pint is British, Norwegian, and Italian.
HapusFor number 2. From what i got by watching his ted talk, i can say that he was utilizing especially Norwegian culture (behaviour) and other nationalities such as Italian, UK, French, Singapore, Finland, Dutch and lil bit Indian culture.
BalasHapusI kinda love your points tyara. You kinda right and hit all of the country. What a wonderful vision of yours!
HapusSingapore with their hierarchy in society.
HapusI completely agree, Norway became the topic of the dominant country to discuss how cultural variations between people were in the discussion.
HapusWell you're right, he also takes advantage of other cultures, as you said.
HapusAnd also there is unique thing such as. Like norgic : minimum words maximum message. British/italiam : maximum words minimum message. Also they have their own term of uses. Its kind a cool
HapusThis lecture was delivered in a relaxed and entertaining way that discussed 3 countries' cultures, namely the USA, Italy and Norway. I think there are 3 important points contained in it: 1. the difference in how they queue which is different in each country, 2. the difference in the words they use 3. Differences in road conditions, whether in traffic jams or when the car is parked.that is fantastic and push they curiosity.
BalasHapusIts seems right but even though your point seems not straight point. I still get you,make your point get more highlight okay!
HapusThat's right! for the curiosity it was reminded him to the children.
HapusAs I see it, you have three points that's already good, you focus on the keyword 'difference' which can be melted if all parties can interact well.
HapusI agree with your opinion about the three important things.
Hapusfor question number 3, It seems to me that the important point is.
BalasHapus- accepted and familiar
- curiosity
- always take the best from every culture we know
Actually from the way i see, i think its more than that. There is also hierarchy,ethical value,vision also how to merge a lifestyle
HapusAnd i think italy more friendly
BalasHapusYup, Italy prefers to invite its opponents to talk with simple things when starting a conversation, not directly to complicated questions that might make it difficult for most people to continue a conversation. In addition, also with facial expressions that seem to attract people's sympathy to develop the topic of discussion.
HapusOkay ,then lets talk about the third point. Actually i have more than three point,cause im so excited about this. Ookkay!! Hope you understand my point.
BalasHapus1. Seeing what want people to see not what we want to see
2. Culture is a thing that are accepted and familiar in a society, like the differentiation when he use a british and italian
3. Hierarchy and ethical stuff
4. Curiosity , curiosity brings you to know new knowledge that you never ever know before. Even though you dont like the whole thing,but the information of a language/culture could bring you to see whats people life in a whole view..
5. In the end ,when you know the culture inside of you and the other culture . Then you can merge in one lifestyle, it will be a global mindset that make a world go around

HapusI agree with your opinion, but I also have an opinion on that
HapusI'm not saying you're wrong. but in my opinion for the answer to number three is :
Hapus1. good manners when speaking
2. Respect other people and their culture
3. and discipline
Personally, my answer to point 2, which is from the short video that we watched together, the three countries discussed there (England, Norway, and Italy) are the right countries as samples of Riccardi culture. who has a person's point of view based on the way he talks
BalasHapusI agree with what was conveyed by hikmal regarding how other people treat us differently between countries. It is true that every country has a different way of treating other people. But if we treat other people well then that person also does the same thing, In life we must respect each other.
BalasHapusI guess for number 3, he was trying to point out these three things:
BalasHapus1. What being accepted and Familiar in their own culture.
2. Equality (in minutes 6:56)
3. Curiosity is a must!
Right, we move on to question number 3. There are several points that I got from the video discussion session.
BalasHapus1. Don't immediately think badly about new foreign cultures.
2. Continue to get used to a new culture that will further broaden our horizons in seeing the world.
3. Start with a simple topic to invite others to discuss.
More than that, I developed it as follows:
4. Honesty as the main key to be accepted by others.
5. Tips must be smart in selecting a culture that is in accordance with our native nation, so don't immediately accept a culture that is odd.
6. Don't underestimate something we have just encountered
7. Differences cannot be avoided, but they are learned to become competent human beings to preserve culture from anywhere.
I think that's my perspective on what Riccardi wants to emphasize to all of us.
true, we should be more open but also have to filter back what we get from various cultures that enter across cultures
HapusYes, you are also right. very complete
HapusIn my own opinion regarding point 2 that was conveyed by the speaker. There were several countries discussed, namely Norway, Italy and England. These 3 countries are close together and are also known as Riccardi culture. However, these three cultures are different in how they treat other people.
BalasHapusyour opinion is very reasonable, but in my opinion on point 3, it emphasizes more on language style, cross culture, and also someone's point of view on something positive
BalasHapusI agree with you regarding point number 3 we must emphasize language style, point of view and equality and curiosity. Always take good things from every culture and country that we know to be more familiar.
BalasHapus
