Cross Culture

Hello beautiful people!

@ceparl here 👋

Welcome to the New Cross Culture's Daily curation where we bring you some amazing posts from members across communities of different cultures, focusing on but not limited to bilingual posts.

The Cross Culture community, was created by @whatamidoing.

It is a community that supports authors who make posts that share the realities of different cultures first hand, as well as different perspectives and experiences. We look for ways in which cultures can become crosscrossed and enlightening while going beyond stereotypes associated with certain culture.

The authors whose articles have been chosen for this week are all writing content of high quality, which focus on the various topics:

All bilingual posts
Posts in regional communities or tags

Posts related to language or culture
Posts in our cross culture community

Cross Culture's daily bulletin aims to bring to light all authors whose articles would otherwise remain unnoticed and lost in the platform, therefore we tend to reward authors who create quality posts, giving them a fair chance to establish themselves on the platform.

Howbeit, that's only the half of it!!!

After careful selections, our curators which come from diverse cultures will single out the most outstanding articles among all those curated to create a weekly shout out to the authors from the Top posts of the week.

📌Therefore, here are this week's awesome authors and their posts:

One people -
both strong and rich,
welcomes with bread and salt, with flowers.
One people - descendants of Kubrat
Hates to fire and loves to blood.
He sang a song early in the darkness,
and raised a cask of red wine,
under the shriek of a bullet, waved a banner
for the good of his country

Diccionario venezolano | Venezuelan dictionary [ESP-ENG] by @ashleyjaramillo

Happy Sunday people! I saw this idea of making a dictionary with words from our country in the Blogging Challenge and I really liked it and I think it's fun hahaha. I am from Venezuela and I personally consider that we have many words, forms of expression quite particular so I decided to do this for those who read me from other countries can understand the meaning of certain words that perhaps they have heard or had no idea they existed hahaha. Let's start!

MÁGÙN: CHARM USED TO PUNISH ADULTERERS IN YORÙBÁ TRADITION by @debbie-ese

Adultery is a condemnable act that is not tolerated in any culture or religion throughout the world. It is a demeaning act to see a married man or woman having an affairs with another woman or man. The act is not farfetched in our society and there are certain measures put in place to control or get rid of such demeaning acts.
One popular measure used by the Yoruba people of Nigeria to curb promiscuity is Magun. Magun is known as thunderbolt in English.
