Intercultural- Application

In the movie Borat, there are many cultural differences that Borat is unaware of. He does things that are obviously not socially acceptable in our country and he does not know that the are wrong. He does many inappropriate things and people are appalled by them. In his home country, things are obviously a lot different than in America and if we study how people there live we would be able to communicate better. Borat is unable to communicate positively with Americans in the movie because he is lost in the cultural barrier and does not know what to do when he comes across a problem. For example, he has a very crude sense of humor and many people don't accept this in our country. When he would say these things people would get very offended but they didn't realize that he does not know what is appropriate to say around people you don't know.
