Answer 1

There often is an assumption that if you are in a certain culture that the people in that culture are like that. So many people,scholars, psychologist, anthropologist and especially the layperson have equated culture with personality.for example,The United States is typically thought to be a very individualistic culture but it isn't true for every singke person.In every culture there's a huge amount of individual differences of personalities.sometimes we lose the fact that there are wide varieties in the people of that culture.Similarly, language is also assumed to be same by a particular culture of people that is also not necessarily true., It also differ from people to people.
