Ah, I found trouble with it last year in my preliminary course, but my teacher helped me out alot.

Cross Cultural comparison is when you relate your very own culture (Australia) and relate it to another one say India, India is our main focus in my class and its my example so for example

In the Indian world, funeral wear is white, while in the australian culture, white appears to be a colour of purity and black is the colour worn.
