Names in my culture I will write about the names in my culture. In Spain, we usually have two last names and the first name. It's because we have the first surname from our father and the second from our mother. Some people, how I also have a middle name. For this reason, we can get a long name. Usually, when some Canadian ask my full name this person get confused , because I have four names and that is not normal in the Canadian culture. In Canada the most people usually have two names. The first name and the last name. I think in the most culture only get a father surname. That's because in the history the woman was not equality to the man. Today, still in the present we can see examples, how can be in the case of the last name. But, anyways that is only my personal opinion. In Africa for example, the baby's last name is the name of the day that was they born. It is something different to the other cultures. Now I will write about the origin of the names; In Spain, the origin is usually from the places where the people live, physical appearance, social status, kind of work or personality. In Canada, I think the origin is like to Spain.

Names in my culture

I will write about the names in my culture.

In Spain, we usually have two last names and the first name. It's because we have the first surname from our father and the second from our mother. Some people, how I like me also have a middle name. For this reason, we can get have a long name.

Usually, when some Canadian asks my full name this person gets confused , because I have four names and that is not normal in the Canadian culture. In Canada the most people usually have two names. The first name and the last name.

I think in the most cultures people only get a their father's surname. That's because in the history historically the woman was not equality to the man. Today, still in the present we can see examples, how it can be in the case of the last name. But, anyways that is only my personal opinion. In Africa for example, the baby's last name is the name of the day that was they were born. It is something different to the other cultures.

Now I will write about the origin of the names; In Spain, the origin is usually from the places where the people live, physical appearance, social status, kind of work or personality. In Canada, I think the origin is like to the same as Spain.

 

Very good Dani! My corrections are in red and my suggestions to sound more natural are in blue/grey.


"Anyways" is often used in the USA and probably Canada. It's an informal way of saying "anyway".
