Answer will vary. Sample answer: Welcome to My Culture!
You’re going to love the culture here in the southeastern part of the United States. There are actually a lot of diferences. You will probably notice that people are very polite here. They hold doors open for others. They shake hands and smile a lot. You will also see people nod their head very quickly and just one time as you walk past them. This means “hello.”You should nod to them in the same way. The food is really good—if you like fried food. And since you’ll be here during football season, you’re going to have fun on the weekend. You’ll also hear people talk English in a very diferent way than you are learning it. One of the more useful expressions to know is “I hear that.” Say it when you agree with what a person is telling you in a friendly conversation.
