Cultural assimilation is the process by which individuals or groups from one culture adopt the customs, values, and behaviors of another culture, often leading to a blending of cultural identities. This can occur when immigrants or minority groups integrate into a dominant culture, sometimes resulting in the loss of their original cultural traits. The process of cultural assimilation can be influenced by various factors, including social interactions, education, and economic opportunities. For example, immigrants may learn the language and traditions of their new country, such as the United States, while gradually moving away from their original cultural practices.
