---Excerpt From the Paper--

The Puerto Ricans despite modernity have certain beliefs, which form part of their culture. Respeto is part of the belief among the Puerto Ricans, where they try not to transgress any member of the society. To Puerto Ricans, every person has intrinsic dignity. The universal principle among the islanders is that a person must learn to respect other people by respecting themselves. In this respect, the population believes in obedience, hard work and self-assurance as part of Respeto. Additionally, Puerto Ricans believe that the act of socializing children in society is the role of a woman. This scenario is prevalent even in the families with the presence of a male figure.

Additionally, Symbols form part of the Puerto Rican culture. For example, it is uncommon to see the population there clapping once the plane has landed on the runway. Applauding is a thankful gesture that the aircraft has landed safely. Food also for part of the Puerto Rican culture as traditional foods like mofongo, asopao, or tostones forms part of the dinner table of the inhabitants of the island. Lastly, Puerto Rican language forms part of its culture as, despite the fact that Spanish is widely spoken, some of the words and phrases are exclusively for Puerto Ricans. For instance, Puerto Rican uses china as the color of orange, while for other Spanish speaking countries is naraja.-
