Local, Indian and global context

  • Local language and place terms can be valuable when the post is community-specific.
  • Global audiences benefit from the commonly used cultural name plus precise activity terms.

What to avoid

  • Do not present one country’s tradition as universal.
  • Do not use “best”, “viral” or “most popular” as factual claims without evidence.
