Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process that Jin-Li underwent is called acculturation, which refers to the process of adapting to the culture of a new or different society. This includes learning the customs, values, and language of the new culture. Socialization refers to the process by which individuals learn and internalize the norms and values of their own culture. Acclamation and culturization are not commonly used terms in this context.
