MUHAMMAD RIZWANPublished 2 years ago in WanderFinding Home
Beating swallow wings and chirps, scraping chairs and chiming bells, children laughing and dogs barking. I understand this language. It’s the language of home. Then there is the smooth Italian tongue that hums beneath the rest. Like a crescendoing bass, it settles in the back of my mind, tightening my core to a clenching panic that if I look around I'm not really home. But what is home? A place to lay one’s head, a place where one’s family is, a place where one’s clothes are kept in dusty drawers and on cheap hangers, a place where one knows the language?

It is said that a long time ago, Cangjie was the historian of the emperor. He had the same face as the dragon. He especially likes to observe the things around him, and he also likes to use his brain or think about problems. He looked up every day to observe the changes of the stars in the sky, to see the patterns on the turtle's back, the colors of birds' feathers, and the ups and downs of mountains and rivers. He often painted the shapes and characteristics of things on his hands. Over time, Ding characters were created. When Cangjie created words, the world began to have corn like fish, afraid that people would patronize writing. People will be hungry in the future. Ghosts secretly cry in the dark, and Dragons hide because they are afraid that words will record their ugly behaviors and make them infamous for thousands of years.

Jennifer ChristiansenPublished 2 years ago in WanderWhat is the difference between Chinese culture, Korean culture, and Japanese culture?
Chinese culture is all-encompassing, with many ethnic groups, a wide area, and a long time span. It cannot be comprehensively summarized by only a few single cultural symbols. Chinese culture originated in the mainland and has a deep influence on East Asian countries. It can be compared to the source of European civilization—Greek culture and Latin culture. Chinese civilization is also recognized as one of the four ancient civilizations. For Japanese and Korean cultures, they have a single ethnic structure and are located on the edge of the continent. They do not belong to the source of civilization, but can be regarded as a derivative of continental civilization. Its cultural content is relatively simple, and it is easier to be generalized and interpreted. The early form of Japanese and Korean culture mainly relied on the introduction of mainland culture, but due to its simple geography and relatively stable politics, it could develop in a relatively isolated and in-depth manner without other influences. A few specific examples are used to illustrate:
