Abstract(in English) There is a possibility that the misunderstanding is caused in multilingual communications, because people cannot understand enough other culture even when talking by using the same word. People should judge the presence of a cultural difference in today's situation. However, it is difficult to judge it because enough knowledge of other culture is necessary. We propose the cultural difference detection method between Japan and China focused on a writer's intention using Wikipedia. From the result of the experiment, the proposed method can detect a thing that has a different meaning in each culture, called the 2nd cultural difference, better than conventional methods.
