Oral VS Written Culture




Oral Vs Written Culture




What is Oral Culture? Oral Culture is a way of society to transmit history, story, literature,law and other knowledge across generation without writing it. People tends to use the "storytelling" to spread their news, the disadvantage of Oral Culture is the reliability of the information. While in the other hand, the Written Culture is the other way around of Oral Culture, when people discover ink and paper the way of society spread and transmit the news, story, literature, law and other knowledge is by writing it down and publish it.




I dont know if Filipino's are more on Oral or Written Culture. Though we are adopting the technology on written culture, Filipino's still relly on Oral Communication. We love "CHISMIS", we are Chismoso and CHismosa and we love sharing information right? ahahhaha... =)
