Chapter 3: DisciplineLetter from Pennyfeather to Arthur potts

Dear Arthur
About the question that you asked me, I think that the teachers need to explain to the students how to have more control with themeself because when the kids grow up and they have problems in different things, they will know what to do. Now i can finnaly see that you are a better  friend than I expected. I just dont understand  why Mr Digby Vane Trumpington went to your room in the night and  I also think that 20 ₤  is very annoying and I think that is more insulting because he was very irresponsable so thanks you for putting him in a good place and also telling him that he has a wrong opinion or view about it .I think the same as you, because money cant be a sort of excuse and apologyse. Thanks alot my friend, please dont accept the money because is not enoght compared to my shame.Talking 

your dear friend, 
Paul Pennyfeather
PD, it dont matters how much of money he offers you please dont accept it, trust me.

How does language reflect culture?

 

How does language reflect culture?

How does language reflect culture?

The ways in which language reflects culture are sometimes very small, based on studies, they can be many in the languages. In most common languages, all words are derived from three-letter roots, and when comparing words of the same places, you will notice that they share a single abstract concept which reflects the society perception of the concept. 

 

Examples of how language can reflect culture is firstly in vocabularies and variations within them. This may also reflect the material needs of people speaking it, and the climate they live in for example, the northen rusian has alot of words, to us all meaning simply snow, with many distinctions of the different properties of kinds of snow.
Words of more abstract meaning are generally the key to investigating this matter, as they generally are more directly connected to thinking and behaviour the culture.
