Answer to Question 1

Six barriers to intercultural communication are:
 Stereotypes: North Americans are sometimes viewed as overly friendly, blunt, and childlike.
 Interpretation of time: Many Latin Americans believe that important things take more time than unimportant things.
 Personal space requirements: Arab business people stand very close to each other compared to U.S. business people.
 Body language: The symbol for okay in the U.S. means zero in France and a vulgarity in Brazil.
 Translation limitations: The Japanese concept of indebtedness has no direct English equivalent.
 Lack of language training: Many non-Hispanics do not speak Spanish in areas of the U.S. with a high Hispanic population.
