Cultural Shock.
I've arrived to the United States just two months ago. I'm from Hungary, an Eastern European small country. I didn't know the expression: cultural shock until I came here, but after a week I had to realize that I was in a totally new world.
Everything was different for me: the language, the norms, the personality of an average person. I realized that I have to learn all these things to understand the Americans and to be able to live with them.
The United States is one of the most diversified countries in the world. Its people come from multiple ethnic backgrounds and cultural traditions. For this reason, it is quite different from other nations.
It is understandable that foreign nationals will encounter language and cultural differences. But if you are flexible, you can easily assimilate into the American culture within a short period of time.
