When cultures meet
- As culture spreads and meets other cultures, several outcomes follow.
- Cultures can become more alike, or more distinct.
- Diffusion both enriches places and threatens local traditions.
当文化相遇
- 随着文化传播并与其他文化相遇,会产生几种结果。
- 文化可以变得更相似,也可以变得更独特。
- 扩散既丰富了地方,也威胁着当地传统。
Convergence and divergence
- Cultural convergence 文化趋同 is cultures becoming more alike as they share traits.
- Global brands and English online are examples.
- Cultural divergence 文化分化 is a culture becoming more distinct, often to resist outside influence.
趋同与分化
- 文化趋同(cultural convergence)是文化在共享特征时变得更相似。
- 全球品牌和网上的英语是例子。
- 文化分化(cultural divergence)是一种文化变得更独特,常为抵抗外部影响。
Cultures becoming more alike as they share traits is cultural... · 当文化分享特征时变得更加相似，这是文化……
Cultural convergence = cultures growing more alike. · 文化趋同 = 文化变得越来越相似。
Blending and change
- Acculturation 文化适应 adopts some traits while keeping your own.
- Assimilation 同化 fully blends into another culture.
- Syncretism 融合 is two cultures blending into something new (like fusion food).
融合与变化
- 文化适应(acculturation)采纳一些特征,同时保留自己的。
- 同化(assimilation)完全融入另一种文化。
- 融合(syncretism)是两种文化融合成新的东西(如融合菜)。
Which cultural outcome? · 哪种文化结果？
Sort each example as acculturation, assimilation, or syncretism. · 将每个例子归类为文化适应、同化或融合。
Syncretism is when two cultures blend into something new. · 融合是指两种文化融合成全新的事物。
Syncretism = a new blend; assimilation = fully absorbed into one culture. · 融合 = 新的混合体；同化 = 完全融入一种文化。
Fully blending into another culture and losing your own is called . · 完全融入另一种文化并失去自己原本的文化被称为。
Assimilation is complete absorption; acculturation keeps some of your own culture. · 同化是完全吸收；文化适应保留部分自己的文化。

Match each term to its meaning. · 将下列术语与其含义匹配。
Acculturation keeps some; assimilation loses your own; syncretism creates a new blend. · 文化适应保留一部分；同化失去自己的；融合创造新的混合体。
Diffusion is not simply "good" (enriching) or "bad" (erasing). The same global spread that brings new food and music can also erode local languages and traditions. On the exam, weigh both the enrichment and the loss.
扩散并非单纯的“好”(丰富)或“坏”(抹除)。带来新食物和音乐的同一种全球传播,也可能侵蚀当地语言和传统。考试中,要权衡丰富和损失两面。
Fusion cuisine — like a Korean-Mexican taco — is syncretism: two food cultures blending into something new. Meanwhile, a small language dying out as its speakers switch to a dominant global language is a loss from the same process of diffusion.
融合菜——比如韩式墨西哥卷饼——是融合(syncretism):两种饮食文化融合成新的东西。与此同时,一门小语言随着使用者转向占主导的全球语言而消亡,是同一扩散过程带来的损失。
Diffusion leads to cultural convergence (cultures grow alike) or divergence (a culture grows distinct). Contact produces acculturation (adopt some, keep some), assimilation (fully blend in), or syncretism (blend into something new). It both enriches and threatens.
扩散导致文化趋同(文化变相似)或文化分化(文化变独特)。接触产生文化适应(采纳一些、保留一些)、同化(完全融入)或融合(融合成新的东西)。它既丰富也威胁。
