Culture
noun
Writing has changed our entire culture. In fact, when someone reads a good piece of writing it changes them, and changes their culture too. What writing has changed you so much it has changed your culture and the way you act?
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. Since 文 has two on'yomi readings, here's a mnemonic to help you remember which one to use:
