문화를 놓고 어디까지 아느냐 어디까지 모르냐는 어떻게 설명이 될 수가 없고, 그렇담 표현의 문제로
이제는 미국에 산지 너무 오래되어서 한국문화와 괴리가 느껴진다고 하면 좋을까요
뭐 제가 정말 이해 못하는 걸 척이라고 주장하시면 제가 더 드릴 수 있는 말씀은 없죠, 그것도 8님 생각인데
제가 그 생각을 가지고 뭐라 할 수는 없으니까요
근데 전 이제 정말 이해가 안가고 모르는 부분이 많거든요 ㅎㅎ
한국말도 잊어버리지 이건 왜 쓰냐고 하시는데,
어쩌겠습니까, 제 뇌가 성능이 좀 덜떨어졌다면, 그렇게 할 수 있었을텐데, 아쉬운 부분이네요.
아직은 좀 잘 돌아 가는 것 같아요, 잘 안써도 까먹지도 않고.. 8님과 비슷한 수준에서 계속 대화가 이어지긴 하니까요!
and………..sorry to let you know that I actually prefer communicating in English. I do spend (…or waste) a lot of time on reddit. I occasionally get on this forum to learn from many users who are highly motivated and intelligent, and also to keep my korean skills up to par (to your point :D). I have found many answers to my job/life questions here and i just felt i could share a piece of mine as well (didn’t know this would be considered rude :P)
I had no intention of mocking or belittling korean culture or people. all i was saying was that there are cultural differences and i’m getting more used to american way of living. this is not a matter of right or wrong, i was just sharing my thoughts, that’s all. of course, you have to respect and learn about korean culture if you are living in korea, no doubt, but I feel that “I ” (not you, not anyone else, just talking about myself) will have harder time transitioning between two cultures since I am now somewhat “Americanized” as you put.
being “Americanized” living in the U.S. sounds totally legit to me. so if you have a problem with that, i dont know what to tell ya.
though I had hard time understanding the underlying hostility in your comments, I thank you for keeping me enticed XD. my manager thought i was furiously working on a memo lol.
hope to see you around, please share your wise “teachings” with others as well. I might not respond but please do know i will be entertained.
ciao.
