A culture can be characterized by custom and tradition that differentiates people from another. Culture is practiced anywhere human being resides, and people with culture have ways they practice their culture like the language they speak, their food, festival, religion, and the way they dress. Many people migrate from their particular country to another for some reason, maybe as refugees or by winning visa lottery to better their lives. People should not be shy or should not forget to continue their culture. Therefore, there are many reasons people should not forget to keep their culture.



        However, culture does not stay the same; things like technology, environmental change a new idea and often influences culture. When people are fortunate to travel to another country to visit or live, they expect the people in that country to be able to understand and be able to communicate with them in their language, which is not always like that. In that case, people should be proud to speak their native language when they are lucky to meet the people that speak the same language. My suggestion is that all immigrants should be proud to speak their mother tongue freely.

      Many people from West African that are here in the States and the United Kingdom I knew only communicate with their children in the English language, which as a result, deprive their kids of not been able to speak their parent's language. Also, they are not familiar with their culture as well.

        Culture and other things that surround it are beautiful. Therefore, people with a different culture that are in another country should not forget the culture of where they came from, and should not deprive their offspring of knowing part of their background. It feels good to me when I see people speaking in their language and maintaining their culture in all aspects.
