Here's a Question
Do you think that the way a person thinks is altered when they come from 2 or more cultures?
Are the thought patterns, perspective, methods of thinking, different than that of a person that has lived in one place their whole lives?
Add to that that when a person is a polyglot... multilingual, they think differently, weigh things different in each of the languages.
So how much is culture, how much is language, how much is environment.
Take the situation where you take a person from 2 cultures, equally in each and then take a person from 1 culture and have them describe themselves, describe people, world events and the places they've lived.
What kind of views will they have? The same or different.
As in do people from one culture see things more internally? I don't know but I have been thinking about this a bit.
Is it just a factor that you can't see the forest for the trees vs seeing only the forest?
Or in the end will the results be the same...
I remember when we talked about this a long time ago.
