Today, many people move to another countries, and they often have problem called culture shock. It is important to know why it happen and how to solve it. This essay will talk about the main reasons for culture shock and give some ideas how to make it less strong.
One big reason for culture shock is language problem. When people go to live in a new country, they maybe don’t know the local language well. This make communication hard and can make people feel lonely. For example, foreign people in non-English countries have difficulty to speak with locals in normal life. Another reason is different culture. Every country have own traditions and social rules, and sometimes they very different. For example, in Spain, people have siesta (a short sleep in afternoon), and this can be strange for visitors from other countries.
But there are ways to make culture shock smaller. First, learning the local language before moving can help people talk better. Second, reading about traditions of new country before travel can help people understand what to expect. Finally, speaking with local people and making friends help foreigners feel more happy and comfortable.
In conclusion, culture shock is big problem for people who live in new country. But learning language, knowing about new culture and making friends can help people adapt more fast and enjoy life in new place.
