ASPECTOS CULTURAIS DOS ESTADOS UNIDOS 🇺🇸
- THINK BIG
WHEREAS OTHER COUNTRIES EMPHASIZE BEING PRACTICAL, COMPACT AND CONCISE, AMERICANS OFTEN PREFER LARGE AND LUXURIOUS. DON'T BE SURPRISED BY THE ENORMOUS TRUCKS AND MASSIVE SUVS SPRAWLING ACROSS PARKING LOTS. AMERICANS JUST LIKE THEIR SPACE, AND TO THEM, LARGE CAN BE PRACTICAL. THINKING BIG ALSO APPLIES TO AMERICAN FOOD; MOST RESTAURANTS SERVE VERY LARGE PORTIONS. IT'S NOT UNCOMMON FOR SOMEONE TO ORDER A SIZEABLE MEAL AND THEN TAKE THE REMAINDER HOME AS LEFTOVERS.
B) GOING OUT TO EAT OR ORDERING TAKE-OUT
AMERICANS EAT OUT NOT ONLY IN THE INTEREST OF TIME AND CONVENIENCE, BUT BECAUSE IT'S FUN! THE U.S. IS A MELTING POT OF DIFFERENT CULTURES, BRINGING ALONG A VARIETY OF TASTY FOOD OPTIONS. DINING OUT ALLOWS AMERICANS TO EXPLORE NEW CUISINES AND FOOD VARIETIES. EVEN IN SMALL AMERICAN TOWNS, YOU'RE LIKELY TO FIND PIZZA, CHINESE, JAPANESE, OR MEXICAN FOOD. IN LARGER CITIES, YOU'LL FIND RESTAURANTS DEVOTED TO ETHIOPIAN, BRAZILIAN, OR AFGHANI CUISINE. IT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND THAT PEOPLE'S HABITS ALWAYS VARY. SOME PEOPLE RARELY EAT OUT, BUT IT IS NOT UNCOMMON FOR AMERICANS TO EAT OUT SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. IN ADDITION TO BRINGING LUNCH FROM HOME, MANY AMERICANS GET TAKE-OUT FOR LUNCH OR GO OUT TO LUNCH EVERYDAY.
C) COMPETITION
LIKE MANY OTHER CULTURES, AMERICANS THRIVE ON COMPETITION. FROM A YOUNG AGE, CHILDREN ARE ENCOURAGED TO WORK HARD AND TRY THEIR BEST TO SUCCEED AT A TASK, PARTICULARLY IN ACADEMICS, SPORTS, AND OTHER HOBBIES. UNIVERSITIES TEND TO BE VERY COMPETITIVE, SO PARENTS PREPARE THEIR KIDS EARLY FOR THE ADMISSIONS PROCESS. SOME HIGH SCHOOLS AND EVEN PRE-SCHOOLS HAVE COMPETITIVE ADMISSION, AND EVEN GIRL SCOUTS VIE TO SELL THE MOST COOKIES DURING FUNDRAISING DRIVES TO EARN GREAT PRIZES. YOU WILL CERTAINLY SEE THAT MANY AMERICANS HAVE A VERY AMBITIOUS AND GO-GETTER ATTITUDES AS WELL. THEY ARE PROACTIVE AND IF THEY WANT TO ACCOMPLISH SOMETHING, THEY GO FOR IT. THEY DON'T TEND TO SIT BACK AND WAIT FOR OTHERS TO CATCH UP.
D) SMALL TALK
A LOT OF AMERICANS PARTICIPATE IN WHAT IS CALLED SMALL TALK, WHERE YOU MAKE CONVERSATION WITH STRANGERS OR ACQUAINTANCES ABOUT NON-CONTROVERSIAL TOPICS, SUCH AS THE WEATHER, SPORTS, OR POPULAR TELEVISION SHOWS. WHILE WAITING AT A BUS STOP, IN LINE AT A STORE, OR IN AN ELEVATOR, DON'T BE STARTLED IF A STRANGER SAYS SOMETHING TO YOU LIKE, "DID YOU WATCH THE SUPER BOWL LAST NIGHT? WHAT A GAME!" THEY MIGHT ALSO MAKE A JOKE ABOUT THE LONG LINE YOU'RE BOTH IN, OR COMMENT ON THE CURRENT SITUATION. SMALL TALK IS SUPPOSED TO BE HARMLESS, SO IT'S NOT OKAY IF A STRANGER SAYS SOMETHING THAT MAKES YOU UNCOMFORTABLE.

- THE BRITISH ARE PUNCTUAL.
BEING LATE IS ODD AND, IN SOME CASES, CONSIDERED TO BE RUDE. IF YOU’RE GOING TO BE LATE TO SOMETHING, CONTACT THOSE INVOLVED AS SOON AS YOU KNOW YOU WILL BE LATE. ALSO, IT IS LESS RUDE TO BE LATE TO A DINNER PARTY AT SOMEONE’S HOME THAN IT IS TO BE LATE TO A PUBLIC MEETING (SUCH AS DINNER AT A RESTAURANT).
- NEVER JUMP LINES, KNOWN AS “QUEUES” IN UK.
IN SOME COUNTRIES JUMPING THE QUEUE MAY BE ACCEPTABLE, BUT IN UK, PEOPLE MAY NOT BE VERY HAPPY WITH YOU AND WILL DEFINITELY LET YOU KNOW HOW UNHAPPY THEY ARE ABOUT THE SITUATION. STANDING PATIENTLY IN THE QUEUE IS A NORMAL PART OF BRITISH CULTURE.
- IN THE UK, IT’S ACCEPTABLE TO KEEP ONE ARM’S LENGTH BETWEEN YOURSELF AND THOSE YOU ARE SPEAKING WITH.
ANY CLOSER IS ASSUMED TO BE AGGRESSIVE AND CAN BE UNCOMFORTABLE FOR THOSE NATIVE TO UK.
- PLEASE, THANK YOU, AND SORRY ARE NORMAL PARTS OF EVERYDAY CONVERSATIONS AND INTERACTIONS.
SOME PEOPLE ARE SIMPLY BAFFLED BY HOW POLITE BRITISH PEOPLE ARE. AS AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT, YOU MAY NOT BE USED TO THIS, BUT YOU WILL PROBABLY GET USED TO IT QUICKLY AFTER YOUR ARRIVAL!
