<h3>Answer:</h3>

Vocabulary

First, it's important to remember the definitions of key terms within this question and my explanation.

  • Urbanization - Urbanization is the trend of people moving from rural areas to urban cities. This means that urban cities increase in population, size, and frequency.
  • Megacity - Megacities are cities that are examples of urbanization because they are extremely large cities with at least 10 million people.
  • Syncretism - Syncretism occurs when people blend their cultures together to create a new culture, language, and/or religion.

Effects of Urbanization

Megacities have only grown in size because of urbanization. This means that more people with new ideas have entered the city. So, this has created new informational hubs. With a population of that size and new people through urbanization, people are able to work with others from different backgrounds which helps create new solutions.

Additionally, megacities are usually also melting pots of different cultures.  As urbanization continues, these cultures diffuse further. this means that syncretism can occur. This means that people are exposed to new cultures that can change their views on the world.

Finally, it's important to remember that not all effects of urbanization are positive. Another effect of urbanization, especially in megacities, is pollution. With that many people living in a city, trash and energy consumption are extremely high. This level of pollution can decrease the air quality making it hard to breathe.

How are Khasi people decreasing
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The Khasi people are an indigenous ethnic group of Meghalaya in north-eastern India with a significant population in the bordering state of Assam, and in certain parts of Bangladesh. The Khasi people form the majority of the population of the eastern part of Meghalaya, and is the state's largest community, with around 48% of the population of Meghalaya. They are among the few Austroasiatic-speaking peoples in South Asia.

Explanation:

Often, in search of new knowledge, new means of communication and dress code, new eating habits, we turn a blind eye to our own existing but gradually diminishing rarity.

Youngsters think that acting, talking or behaving like a Khasi is old fashioned and unacceptable in the contemporary world of 'want to be' and 'who/what is trending.'

However, the outskirts of Shillong are at the bottom of the barrel, according to most of our 'westernised youths.' Students from villages who make their stay in Shillong to study are not usually the top choices of 'Khynnah sor' (the town's youth) to hang out with. Youngsters in the urban areas dominate or categorise those coming from villages as 'nongkyndong' (villagers) because of their vernacular accent and lack of style.

It is because of such reasons too, that even villagers who used to embrace the Khasi culture, are starting to follow the baseless and common modern culture. Hence, the cycle repeats; one person trying to please another, for the sole reason of being accepted.
