A broad definition of culture is that it is the human-made part of the

Material culture consists of such elements as dress, food, houses, highways,

Subjective culture is a society's "characteristic way of perceiving its social
environment" (Triandis, 1972, p. viii, 3).
It consists of ideas about what has worked in the past and thus is worth
transmitting to future generations.
Language and economic, educational, political, legal, philosophical and
religious systems
Ideas about aesthetics, and how should people live with others
