I never watched Squid Game. I am not sure I have much desire to watch it. I like reading Shakespeare as well. I used to have the complete works somewhere. It was nicely bound book that a young lady who was once a close friend got for me. I feel like you have done a really good job of introducing the Finnish culture to me even though you don't speak the language. I think Greek is a good example of how there are nuances to the words and only a handful of people actually recognize and appreciate them these days.
Me either. I might watch it one day, but am not interested at all. I don't jump on bandwagons. :)
What I find interesting about looking at culture from behaviour rather than language, is that what many people "say" their culture is, doesn't align with what they actually do culturally. Culture isn't opinion, it is behavioural.
Yeah, that is a good point. There are likely many facets to culture and people pick and choose the pieces they align with whether it is accurate or not.
And this is the problem with defending culture.
