Culture Wars





You may think we look the same and should be the same.  But as with another language, another culture cannot be be fully understood if you lack the lived experience.  You may arrive at a similar meaning, but not the full understanding.






IRAN

همانطور که با زبان دیگری، فرهنگ دیگر نمی تواند به طور کامل درک شود، اگر شما تجربه زندگی نداشته باشید. شما ممکن است به معنای مشابهی برسید، اما درک کامل نیست.






ISRAEL

כמו שפה אחרת, תרבות אחרת לא יכולה להיות מובנת לחלוטין אם אתה חסר ניסיון חי. אתה יכול להגיע למשמעות דומה, אבל לא את ההבנה המלאה.





SAUDI ARABIA

QATAR

kama hu alhal mae lughat 'ukhraa, thaqafatan 'ukhraa la ymkn 'an yakun mafhumaan tamamaan 'iidha kunt taftaqir 'iilaa tajribat hiatin. qad tasil 'iilaa maenaa mumathilin, walakun lays fahum kamil.

AFGHANISTAN

د بلې ژبې په څیر، که تاسو د ژوند تجربه نلرئ نو بل کلتور به په بشپړ ډول نه پوهیږي. تاسو کولی شئ په ورته معنی سره راشي، مګر بشپړ پوهه نه.

SOMALIA

Sida luuqad kale, dhaqanka kale looma fahmi karo haddii aadan aqoon waayo-aragnimadiisa. Waxaad ku imaan kartaa macnaha la midka ah, laakiin ma aha fahamka buuxa.





VENEZUELA

Como con otro idioma, otra cultura no puede ser entendida completamente si usted carece de la experiencia vivida. Puede llegar a un significado similar, pero no al entendimiento completo.








Just a few days ago, in the middle of the night, two prominent activists were grabbed from their homes and forcibly loaded into an unmarked car. We know this because videos documenting their capture surfaced on Tuesday morning. Amnesty International Prisoner of Conscience Leopoldo Lopez and Mayor of Caracas Antonio Ledezma were taken away in the middle of the night, without arrest warrants. Despite rumors they are kept in a military facility, their families have not been officially informed where they are being held.
