Culture refers to the shared beliefs, values, norms, customs, practices, and artifacts that characterize a particular group or society. It encompasses the ways of life of individuals within a community, including their language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music, and arts. Culture is transmitted from generation to generation through communication and education, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world around them. It plays a crucial role in shaping identities and social cohesion, and it can evolve over time with exposure to external influences or internal changes. Culture is not limited to specific geographical boundaries; it can also exist within subgroups, such as different ethnic or social groups, reflecting a diversity of experiences and expressions.
