Who would like to help me figure this out?

_Elsa_

I just started my new story "The difference between culture and tradition". It's got me so confused and yet determined to find out the difference. So this is what I have found online so far.

Culture identify certain ideas, customs, and social behaviors. It represents a group of people or a society, combining their knowledge, beliefs, morals, and laws. 

Tradition describes an individual event or practice, such as removing your shoes when entering your home. Traditions are ideas and beliefs passed down from one generation to the next.

A custom is a traditional way of performing or doing something specific to a particular society, place, or time. Each nation, religion, community have their exclusive customs. A specific gesture, behavior, experience, or act turns into a custom when it continuously practiced. When this is followed for several ages and passed down to fresher generations, it becomes a custom.

Why in my mind do they all sound the same? I need you guys to explain in layman's terms (meaning easy definition) of how you define these. Perhaps you can give me some examples too.

Once I have this clearer in my head I would like you to offer some examples of these from your countries for the story, so please share some of those too. Thanks!

Thanks for the tagged me @Diamond Lim

Mr_Peely

Thanks for tagging me @Diamond Lim 😊

@Diamond Lim Thanks for your tag.

Greymane

Hiya @Elsa Tradition is more personal than culture i guess. It was passed down maybe in the family or the workplace. Like bullying a new comer for fun or opening your gifts with fam on boxing day. Culture involves a whole community. Like wearing a head dress. But i guess the difference is a grey area.

siti_payung

My point of view is tradition come from within family but culture is what whole community normally do. Sometyime both can be very contras with each other. That's my two cents opinions.
