00The numbers of male Peruvians compared with the female Peruvians were not 01u00so 02u00different and the results suggest that Peruvians in general are experiencing a very uniform process of acculturation to the host country. However, a logical alteration is shown for those Peruvians who came to Japan 01u00more 02u00recently, or have left children in 010200, or even those who are wishing anxiously to go back to the home country in the future. In spite of those factors, tendencies of 01u00raising 02u00the acculturation process are assumed as correct.010id1

00You may be right. I didn't bother to read the entire text that carefully as I was too busy and know from experience that there are often lots of interpretations. I just gave an answer to the question concerning the use of the three words. (I'm still too lazy to read the text.05000)02br
