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.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
