Identity from Language & Culture

How do language and culture contribute to the formation of our identity?

To create and have your own unique identity there are some very important things that you need to have, your language and your culture. Why? Because to form a good identity and to know something about someone you should look about where they are from and what culture do they have, and with all that information you will have a better idea of who is the people you are trying to know.

Like for example a way of trying to know someone who you haven’t seen you could make a fast research and know about him some very important thing, like if he speaks Hebrew you could say he is a Jewish, and there is a big prototype that says that the Jewish people are some times very intelligent to make business they are good merchants, so if you look in his culture and you see that he is religious you could say he is a man of word a man with his creator so you may thing that he will be someone good someone that wouldn’t make you anything bad, someone you can trust for the business.

Another example is that if you hear someone speaking Spanish Latin America Spanish you could say that they know how to party hard and that they are cool people.

That are for me the two concepts that helps us to create an identity and help us know people better, that is a very important things that you should see if you want to know somebody to see what is their identity because your identity is your language and culture.

I liked this post because I realize how important is to know your language and your culture to be able to know your own identity and to know someone else identity to by using this tools.
