A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF INTER-CULTURAL COMMUNICATION

A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF INTER-CULTURAL COMMUNICATION

“

A world survey recently conducted by the UN posed the following question.

Could you please give us your opinion about the food shortage in the rest of the world?

This was a huge failure due to the following reasons:

  • In Africa no one knows what "food" is.
  • In Western Europe no one knows what "shortage" is.
  • In Eastern Europe no one knows what "opinion" is.
  • In South America no one knows what "please" means.
  • And In the US no one knows what "rest of the world" means.
