evaluation of other cultures according to preconceptions originating in the standards and customs of one's own culture.That almost all the time one culture to the other is weird to people

# data[].attributes.body
It is important

# data[].attributes.body
The author was serious. He didn't have a point of view or preference. He talked about it the way it was, not like making jokes about it. I think when he talked about the thing that people would find the most comical and didn't talk about it in a comical way.

# data[].attributes.body
The joke that the Nacirema came up at the end, the point I think the author is trying to make is the point of view and how we interpret something that is so familiar but also different, and that the way that we may see is totally different than reality.

# data[].attributes.body
You can look up the topic to see if anyone else has written about it, and if not, then it is probably fake.

ethnocentrism basically means that other cultures have preconceptions of standards and customs of there own culture. It is important to be aware of these views when researching because writing is very one sided when the author of it has there own views so when reading these types of articles you have to step back and ask yourself if this article is really what you need to be researching on or is there other ones that would benefit you more.

I discovered the joke near the end of the article when they were talking about the "dentist." I realized that what they were talking about sounded familiar and then realized that spelled tsitned backward is dentist and then everything came together. I think the author is trying to show us how ridiculous we can act and think of ourselves. The only way he could do that however, is to make us believe that there are nacirema people living among us. He wants us to realize that if we think the same "rituals" are bad when other people do it then how do we feel when we do it.

# data[].attributes.body
I it positive because if it I different or funny people will like it and it will be popular but it will be bad if someone was to findout  it was fake.

# data[].attributes.body
I realized the joke at the end of the article, when all of the key words were switched backwards. The first switched word that I had noticed was "nacirema" was american switched backwards. There were also words like "tistned" which is dentist backwards. The author is trying to point out that you should always look carefully when reading articles because nowadays, you don't really know what information is true or not on the internet

# data[].attributes.body
I knew the joke already so it was interesting to see how everyone reacted

# data[].attributes.body
I never knew about this until we started reading it. But I discovered the joke after reading it while realizing what the key words translated to backwards. I think mostly the points where the author tried reporting information was pretty much with all of the different words that were backwards

# data[].attributes.body
Teqniques that the author did to make the story "believable" was the fact that he was able to switch up words like American, and turn it into something like Nacirema. It made the story that much believable. I would like to write publishable hoaxes and fake news articles because it would be fun to trick someone and make them believe that something sounding so bizarre really is something/someone living among us.

# data[].attributes.body
I didn't discover that it was a joke until Ms. VJ pointed it out. Some students were acting like they knew some people that were described which made everyone think that it had to be true. Some of the vocabulary in the article was confusing, but when I looked back in the text, it was obvious to me that the author was describing Americans. I think that the author was trying to show that information can be presented in different forms, but have the same idea at the same time.

# data[].attributes.body
I recognized it was a joke toward the end becuase when the author was talking about magica past, I knew it couldn't be real. I think the author was trying to make us think different about our selves and what we do. When I took a closer look the author was describing our normal routines like brushing our teeth in a much different and interesting ways.

# data[].attributes.body
I didn't really know it was a joke until we got told it was a joke. So up until that point I was disgusted about what the article was saying with magic paste and hog hairs. The author was trying to show you how if you never found the reliable sources that a lot of people believe is true you would just jump on the bandwagon and always believe what other people believe.

# data[].attributes.body
The author used a bit of a dehumanization tactic in order to make readers think how odd and vulgar the tribe was. They also used strong and advanced vocabulary to make it even more realistic and official. While it was slightly humorous when we all realized that we had been hoaxed, fake news can be an extremely dangerous way to set people off. In a society like ours built on communication and relationships, rumors and gossip can go a long way. If a person wrote an article about something sensitive, and if they were to make it realistic enough, it would set off the media and the society into chaos.

# data[].attributes.body
Reporting fake news is good for the people who are reading it because it gives you a perspective of how to not make the same mistake again. But reporting fake news isn't reliable to the ones looking for a good article with good text evidence. It is good sometimes for if you don want people to hear what really happened in a natural disaster, like how many people died or how many buildings were torn down. Then if you wrote a fake article on this it would be better for the people reading it not to know the full truth.

# data[].attributes.body
In this article, the writer seemed to get the reader to envision everything about how the Naciremas acted, and how they felt about others. The author also gave small descriptions, based on how the human body is without this type ritual, one being described as 'ugly'. Personally, I think the author used a persuasive strategy when writing the article. They wanted to win over the readers, so they believe that every bit of this process is clear and true. Also, I personally would not write publishable hoaxes/fake news because everything would be insincere. It would be better in my opinion to display logical and factual information that teach the reader about a true topic.

# data[].attributes.body
The author stretched the truth about our society and changed words like American to Nacirema and hospital to latipsoh and I think that this was a writing strategy that the author used. The made the story seem very unhuman and made the reader really think thee odd people were living among us, when the writer was just talking about us the whole time. This was how the author made this story seem "believeable". I would like to write hoaxes because it would be fun to trick people into one thing when the writer is actually talking about something different.

# data[].attributes.body
It means a kind of culture that is different then our own. We have to be aware because they have different believes and do other things than were use to. Also, we don't want to offend a culture

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered the joke when the teacher said something about it. He  is trying to show how we are living throughout our life.

# data[].attributes.body
Nacirema, hog hairs as a tooth brush, latipsah.

Ethnocentrism is important to notice because other people's views of religion may be important.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered the joke after reading the whole article since the author was very serious about the whole nacirema topic. I discovered it when I read Nacirema backwards and got American

Some advantages of fake news is that it can gain so much popularity and give people false hope. However fake news tend to get more attention over real news. This can be a bad thing because it can mislead people.

# data[].attributes.body
ethnocentrism is important because it describes how one person looks at another culture and looks at how the are different like in the article.

# data[].attributes.body
I found out about the joke when we read nacirema backwards to spell america. I think this article is important, and the author is trying to show how other people can view our culture as different/weird.

# data[].attributes.body
So you know that people can be byass towards what they follow, instead of putting the entire truth.

# data[].attributes.body
I discovered the joke after we read it, when it was explained. I didn't really see it coming. I found it at the end. Looking at it from a different point of perspective is weird.

# data[].attributes.body
The writer switched words around like America and Dentist and over exadurated

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed Latisah spelled backwards was hospital and then Nacirema was American and then hog hairs were the hairs on the tooth brush

# data[].attributes.body
Something that the author did to make the story believable was when he had switched the words up, this sounded believable. I would not like to write publishable news because then other people would think it's true.

# data[].attributes.body
I found out it was a joke near the end when the author used the hog hairs and white stuff in his mouth. I started to realize that he was describing brushing are teeth.

# data[].attributes.body
one technique that the author used was actually having interesting "facts" that were laid out for the reader. the author basically made it seem really believable to the reader. I would not write a hoax article because it is very deceiving to the reader and lots of time makes the reader have false understandings of the article and subject.

# data[].attributes.body
Sources and their reliability are often an important factor to consider when deciding whether something is real or not. Corroborating information will also help in great multitudes.

# data[].attributes.body
I noticed the joke when we started looking at the words spelled backwards and we figured out what they really spelled. I think that the point the author was trying to make was to point out who we are and what our society is like and how weird it is. They were also trying to show all of the weird things humans do and what our society is really like.

# data[].attributes.body
He used american backwards to use as there tribe name. He also used things like toothpaste and hog hairs as the tooth brush.

# data[].attributes.body
The writer of this Nacirema article used the technique of turning words around to make them a new word. This made people think that they were actual words with different meanings. I would like to write like this because it would be fun to make others believe in something that was kind of true ad then reveal it to them at the end.

Having positive and also negative news can be good and bad because You can figure out that you can be tricked by real sites that seem very real. But when you find our that the article is fake you realize that there are so many sites with negative information so now you know to be cautious of what you read.

In today's society, there are definitely multiple opinions. The way that the author presents their opinion or thought can be confusing. The authors way of writing made the article, made it seem interesting. The audience didn't know for example, and  had to pay attention to catch the joke.

# data[].attributes.body
There are advantages to reporting hoax news because the positive is being able to have the cool thoughts of fake news. The negative's can sometimes this fake news can be disturbing and having the thought these things happen right around as us as we live.

# data[].attributes.body
I discorvered the joke after the teacher mentioned it.

# data[].attributes.body
The author was able to make it believable to me as the reader by telling me that this was an actually thing that was going on in our society today. Something like this will interest me into knowing about more of our society. I would like to publish a fake news article because I think that it would be fun to see how many people I could trick.

You can protect yourself from falling victim to this by checking other websites to research the story further
