Definition
of acculturation
The
term “acculturation” (Akhtar, 2011) refers to the level of the
individual adaptation in another country, whilst keeping part of
their original culture (Romanenko, 2012). “Acculturation”
(Akhtar, 2011) is a long process which includes assimilation of a
new culture and its values, but also grieving for what was left
behind, in the country of origin (Akhtar, 2011). In a
cross-cultural relationship, one or both partners will be living
in a new
country
and, in their own individual time, assimilating part of the
culture of the adopted land (Akhtar, 2011).

Definição
de aculturação
O
termo "aculturação" (Akhtar, 2011) refere-se ao nível
da adaptação individual em outro país, enquanto mantendo parte
da sua cultura original (Romanenko, 2012). "Aculturação"
(Akhtar, 2011) é um processo longo que inclui a assimilação de
uma nova cultura e seus valores, mas também de um processo de
luto por tudo o que foi deixado para trás, no
país
de origem (Akhtar, 2011). Em um relacionamento inter-cultural, um
ou ambos os parceiros estarão vivendo em um novo país e, em seu
tempo individual, assimilando parte da cultura da terra adotada
(Akhtar, 2011).
