1.  What are the similarities or the differences between ethnocentrism and cultural relativism?
2.  Please give three examples of cultural shock!
Answer :
1 Cultural relativism is understanding other cultures and their beliefs. For example what seems normal to one culture may seem offensive to another. Example : like china eats dogs and in America keeps them as pets. Ethnocentrism is the belief that your country is the best and your culture is the best and your right and other cultures are wrong.
2 The examples are :
-          If you go to Medan, people in there used to call uncle with tulang but In Jakarta it means that bones.
-          In Indonesia usually if we want to buy something we can say beli which is hear as “bli” but if you go to Bali “bli” means uncle.
-          It is common if we call someone with  “kau” in Sumatera but if we use that call in Central Java or East Java it means rude for them.
