This module made me more aware of how closely language and culture are tied together. The words people use, the way they communicate, and even their non-verbal habits all reflect their background and experiences. I realized how easily meaning can get lost if we don’t pay attention to those differences.
Moving forward, I plan to be more mindful of the language I use with patients and coworkers — choosing clear, respectful communication and asking for clarification when something doesn’t translate the same way. It’s a simple shift, but it really helps build trust and avoid misunderstandings.
