Grammar
Culture or tradition
How would you say this? Is culture same as tradition?
1 There is a tradition/culture that forbids people from touching other people head in that country.
2 My grandparents generation, they weren't allowed to write with their left hands, teachers would tie their left hands behind their backs, it was a culture generation.
How would you naturally say this please?
3 That show isn't of your generation. That's why you don't know it.
Thank you

Hi Jhumjhum,
"According to me" is non-standard English. But you can say "According to my understanding" or "as far as I know". By the way, If you are offering the correct explanation on your own behalf, it is appreciated. But if you copied and pasted from a WEB source, please included the link so that others know where the origin of the reference came from.
