Maybe birthday cake or party culture. These days young people borrow a hotel and have a party.
-
yes, in the food we get, especially in young guys. They usually go fast food restaurant like hamburger, or pizza.
嗯，中国也开始庆祝圣诞节。
Definately yes. As Hong Kong was colonised by UK for years. We have more influenced from western culture them Chinese people
Yes, the birthday cake . In china, they will eat the noodles to celebrate before, now they will eat the birthday cake.
I dont know
Of course
Cake
Eating out..?.
yes i thnk so. Thesedays many people celebrate their birthday at a bar. i think thats the influence of western culture.
Yes a lot. I think everything we do regarding birthday celebration is from western culture. I actually don't know what the traditional way of celebration in Japan.
It is. My family still keep luna calendar birthday but most of korean dont anymore.
Yeah, we sing 'su gimimo diena' which is a western song 'happy birthday'.
I think bithday cake and candle blowing is purely a western tradition that has come to our culture.
Yes, for birthday songs, as I mentioned above, we sing English one. Japan has so much of Western culture, for example, our fashion is often influenced by the Western
the birthday song is all english so it definitely affected by the culture from overseas (could be USA). We are mostly buddhism but celebrate christmas SO MUCH! and after few days we celebrate a new year with wearing Kimono and traditional Japanese songs.
Yes. Birthday song, birthday cakes, balloons.
yes
no
Yes, like singing the birthday songs, and cakes, and even some gifts like balloons and drinks - everything is from wester culture, from Hollywood films. If I ask my mother, how she celebrated her birthdays, she would say that they didn't even celebrated it, just dinner and that would be it. No cake, no birthday songs, no exgenerated gifts, no liftting in the air.
Yes. As I mentioned before, most of us eat cakes and the lyrics of the song is in English.
Yeah, as I said just now, birthday song.
When it comes to birthday celebrations, I'm pretty sure that the candle blowing, cake and happy birthday song all probably came from the Western culture. I think that some other celebrations have been influenced by Western culture as well, for example Christmas (with the red Santa Claus and huge focus on buying things).
I think, yes. All these songs, birthday parties a lot of time ago were different from what they are now.
I don't know
Yes. We would never have celebrations like halloween o valentines day.
I have no viewpoint about this.
I guess the cake
Yes, of course. Children parties, going out of your birthday with your girlfriends, alcohol and wild parties, I believe this is influenced by western culture, for example movies or shows like 'My sweet 16'.
From my personal life, back in the days I thought 16th birthday was something special because of my sweet 16 but in the end it is same as any other birthday.:D
I feel like now days, 21 birthday is much more valued then 18. Even tho I'm out country it's 18 witch is legal.
It is hard to say, but we can see, that many people are trying to find the easiest way to give present and they often choose to give money instead of trying to find something.
Yes, for example, celebrating birthdays in the club drinking the night away.
Yes. For example going into the pubs in order to celebrate your birthday
Yes, I think more and more taditions comes from Wstern countries, as more and more popular become Helloween's celebrating and other tradiotions.
It did. Birthdays became more funny and interesting.
No, I dont.
Big cake, confetti, ribbon with title happy birthday I guess this is all from Western culture. Also, big parties with a lot of alcohol and teenagers. American Dream:D
No.
Yes, I agree with such idea. For example, teenagers birthdays have become 'drinking parties', where the point is not to celebrate and commemorate someones birthday but to get drunk. The examples - my friends birthday parties.
No, I don't think so. But maybe people start paying more attention to 16th birthday, as they call it the "Sweet Sixteen" in foreign countries. And Lithuania started to follow that trend as well.
Yes. For instance, the wall with words "sweet 18", or "Emma's 18", where everyone takes pictures.
No it did not
I don't really know how it would influence our country's traditions of celebrating birthdays but it can be.
No
Not really
No, I don't think so.
In my view, it hasn't influenced. I haven't found any examples in my life.
Everything has some influence on something these times.
I'm not sure what would be a traditional birthday in West, so it's kinda hard to say. Their birthdays differ a lot too :D but probably yes, idk what tho.
In my opinion, the Western culture has definitely influenced my country's traditions, because birthdays were not celebrated in my country before. Also things such as singing "Happy birthday" or putting candles on a cake came from the Western culture and now are considered normal during birthdays.
Not really interested in that.
No
I think yes
Yes, with candle blowing.
Tikrai taip. Senovėje, mano manymu, gimtadieniai nebuvo ypatinga šventė - susirinkdavo tik keli artimieji ir tiesiog pasibūdavo. Dabar kitaip - reikia linksmybių, daug valgio, dovanų tradicijos ir kt.
I think yes. Music.
I think not, and I did not find examples
Well maybe. Like making parties, drinking alcohol.
I don't know that much about birthday traditions of other countries so I really can not tell if our own culture has been influenced by them.
Cake , party
Maybe yes, because cakes are not Japanese traditional food and lyrics of the song either aren't Japanese.
Yes. We wouldn't eat a cake without western culture. We have a rice cake instead.
For kids, it is traditional.
When you become 100 days old, it is traditional. Parents invite all relatives to a restautant. Show pics of how the baby has grown. Let the baby grab one item. If a baby grabs a book, he/she will be a professor/scholar. Grabs Money: businessman. Grabs doctor thing- doctor ...
Tortas būdavo visada. Nemanau kad įtakojo, nes kiek pamenu tai visalaik švęsdavome taip pat.
yes i think so. like eating cake, giving flowers…
Of course. Birthday candles, balloons, whislels and so on
Mano, kad taip, paveikė, bet konkrečių pavyzdžių negaliu pateikti, kadangi tiek neišmanau western culture.
