Every community is governed by certain unspoken rules. These are the rules by which we live, and they determine how we behave, how we talk, how we celebrate, and sometimes, even how we think. Day-to-day rituals and behaviors are impacted, including how we greet others and what we wear to festive gatherings. Expectations such as these are shared and commonly held and are often described as social norms and cultural practices. Although they are related to one another, each is uniquely significant in identity and community formations.
