Sometimes It Can Be Very Difficult to Write in an Unfamiliar

question 5

Essay

Sometimes it can be very difficult to write in an unfamiliar way. When writers from low-context cultures interact with readers from high-context cultures, they can come across as brash and rude. Find an example of a document from the textbook or another source that seems to be written to a reader from a low-text culture like the United States. Edit the document so it is more sensitive to the expectations of a reader from a high-context culture. Provide your instructor with a copy of the original and edited documents.
