Which of the following is the most important medium for transmitting culture?
  1. Universities
  2. Dance
  3. Language
  4. Legislation
Explanation
Answer - C - Language is the most important medium for transmitting culture.

Key Takeaway: A language is a particularly important system for transmitting culture, and has been noted as such as far back as the classical period and probably long before. For example, the ancient Greeks termed less civilized people as bárbaros, meaning “those who babble.” Although education, dance, and law have all contribute toward the transmission of various cultures, none of these mediums has been as profound as they way cultures communicate.
