Answer to Question 1

Low-context cultures are explicit in nature. What is said or written is what is meant by the communicator. Anglo-Saxon countries, such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and Germanic countries are good examples of low-context cultures. High-context cultures also use context as part of the communication method. One must consider the situation and other nonverbal cues to understand the full message. Examples are Arab countries and Japan.

Answer to Question 2

Flight capital is money sent out of a politically or economically unstable country to one perceived as a safe haven. The U.S. attracts flight capital because of its political stability and military strength.
