Culture project (Mexico) by Mia Isidro

Ethnicity

I provide a Mexican flag image because it represents my ethnicity and culture. Being proud of our country is something important in this culture, making something very common to have a Mexican flag as a decoration for your house when you aren't in the country.

Music

I provide an image of a mariachi band because it is one of the most recognized music genres in Mexico. This type of music often tends to represent the Mexican culture, also in this culture the mariachi music is used for important occasions such as birthdays, weddings, or burials.

Traditional clothing

I provide an image of traditional Mexican clothing because it represents the Mexican ethnicity. In this culture, this traditional clothing is usually used in holidays that celebrate the country or that celebrate historical events in the country. As it is shown in the image, for women the clothing usually has the colors of the Mexican flag with some colorful patterns of flowers while for men the clothing is more similar to that of a mariachi due to the style of the clothing and to the hat they are wearing.

Language

In this image there are many words in Spanish because although Mexican culture has other dialects such as the náhuatl the official and most used language in this culture is the Spanish. Although the language is very important, in this culture the language isn't an impediment to spread its beauty among people.

Traditional dances

I provide an image of people dancing "El jarabe tapatio" because it is one of the most common typical dances in this culture. In the Mexican culture there are many traditional dances depending on the rigion such as El jarabe tapatio which comes from Jalisco.

Holidays

I provided an image of one of the most famous holidays in Mexico, which is "the day of the dead" or "Day of the Dead" since it is one of my favorite traditions. In this culture there are many celebrations dedicated either to a historical event in the country, to people who are very fond of and are no longer in this world, or to religion.

Religion

misidro8280 — 2024-11-14 16:09:15 UTC

I provide a picture that represents Catholicism because it is the most common religion in Mexico. In this culture religion is very serious, we even have holidays to celebrate our religion and many of the other holidays are also related to religion such as "El nacimiento del Niño Dios" which commemorates the birth of Jesus.

Food

The photo shows mole Poblano since it is a very traditional food from the region of Mexico where I am from. In this culture there are many typical dishes such as mole, pozole or tamales depending on which region of Mexico we are talking about.

Sports

The photo shows a soccer ball that represents the most popular sport in Mexico. In this culture, many sports are not very popular, such as archery, however, the Mexican population is quite interested in soccer.

Animals

The photo shows an axolotl as I think it is one of the most beautiful animals native to Mexico. In this culture we not only have very striking festivities but we also have some beautiful animals that are native to our country such as the axolotl, and the Mexican gray wolf.
