A designer will be design for different culture is because the design should be respect, accept and understand to another country because culture that not all country are the same. For example The V sign is a hand gesture in which the index and middle fingers are raised and parted, while the other fingers are clenched. It has various meanings, depending on the cultural context and how it is presented. It is most commonly used to represent victory, as a symbol of peace but V sign is also an insult largely restricted to Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Ireland, and the United Kingdom which it means Fuck off.
The picture above showing the v sign is peace.
As we can see the guy showing his angry face with the v sign which it mean fuck off.
Designer should use generic icon as a guideline because generic icon is simple, easy to recognize and to let different country user easier to understand the product with the help of icon. The languages should use international languages which is English because it is only language that goes worldwide or option that allow for text expansion when translated from English.
