Summary/Abstract: “和”, which means harmony or being concordant, is one of the key point of the Chinese culture. However, it hasn’t been well distinguished with a similar aspect, “同”, which means sameness, uniformity. One of the purpose of this article is to clearly tell the difference between “和” and “同”, the other one is to clarify that the Chinese culture admires the diversity and pursues the har￾mony at the same time.
