Acculturation the modification of the social patterns, traits, or structures of one group or
society by contact with those of another; allows one to adapt to a new
culture while maintaining some aspects of their previous culture


Ex: Mexican, Chinese, or Indian food in the US is distinctly different than the
actual cuisines in those particular countries. The cuisines have been
adapted to American tastes while maintaining some styles or flavors of the
point of origin.


3.8: explain how the process of diffusion results in changes to the cultural
landscape: acculturation, assimilation, syncretism, and multiculturalism are
effects of the diffusion of culture
