While staying in Georgia, I have learned a little bit about language in Georgian culture, such as the fact that most young Georgians prefer to speak Georgian, and also speak very good English. I learned how to say basic words in Georgian, including \u201cthank you\u201d and \u201chello.\u201d In Russian, one of the most-used terms that I learned very quickly was the shortened version of the Russian word for \u201cnow.\u201d In spoken Russian, my professors would use a fast pronunciation that sounded more like \u201cshas.\u201d I also learned about the importance of giving toasts in both Georgian and Russian culture, as well as common phrases used in toasts in each language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some of the differences in communication aren\u2019t verbal. For example, Russian speakers don\u2019t usually use eyes in their smiley faces. A Russian speaker will text a smiley face at the end of a sentence like this) and a frowny face like this(. At first, this took some getting used to, but it\u2019s now a habit I have found myself using with my American friends, too. It is easier))<\/p>\n\n\n\n
