       The term culture shock, is used to describe the feeling of unease or loss you might experience when visiting or living in a country that is not your own. You might have problems being in a place where you don’t speak the language and everyday life is quite different from what you’re used to. Initially, this reaction—this shock—may be caused by the feeling that the foreign culture is a threat to your own culture and identity.
       Less well known, however, is the term reverse culture shock, which refers to the difficulties someone can experience on the return to their native country after living abroad. Most people accept that culture shock is a normal part of being in a foreign country. However, it is not so widely understood that people coming home after a stay abroad might also experience a similar kind of culture shock. 
       Living in another country changes you: once you’re home, you’re no longer the same person you left. With global traveling, more and more people live abroad for longer periods of time. It is difficult to dismiss reverse culture shock as something that only happens to a handful of people. It is clearly becoming a more common problem.

     文化衝擊一詞用於描述您在訪問或生活在一個不屬於您自己的國家時可能遇到的不安或失落的感覺。你可能會在一個你不會說這種語言的地方遇到問題，而且日常生活與你過去的生活完全不同。最初，這種反應——這種震驚——可能是因為外國文化對你自己的文化和身份構成威脅的感覺。
     然而，鮮為人知的是反向文化衝擊這個詞，它指的是一個人在國外生活後返回祖國時可能遇到的困難。大多數人接受文化衝擊是在國外的正常部分。然而，人們並不廣泛了解，在國外逗留後回家的​​人也可能會經歷類似的文化衝擊。
     生活在另一個國家會改變你：一旦你回到家，你就不再是你離開的那個人了。隨著全球旅行，越來越多的人在國外居住更長的時間。很難將逆向文化衝擊視為只發生在少數人身上的事情。這顯然正在成為一個更普遍的問題。
