1. Language Differences
2. Differences in Values and Etiquette
3. Tone of voice
4. "Clustering"  (hanging out with others from similar backgrounds)

Post an example of how a difference in one of these areas has caused a misunderstanding due to diversity.  Offer some suggestions on how you think communication between people from diverse backgrounds can relate better to each other.
