High and Low Contect Culture.

High Context Cultures
is a culture which much of the information conveyed in communication is in he context or explicitly coded in verbal messages. People have lots of information i common, and this shared knowledge does not have to be made explicit. 

Low Context Cultures
is a culture in which most of the information in communication is explicitly stated in verbal messages. People do not assume that they share certain information and so make all crucial details explicit.

Brief conclusion : HCC, is less detailed in facts, they get right in the spot, and direct. 
                                LCC, magnify each and every spec of detail, go through and take everything                                     into account and make them significant.
