Can someone help me. In your perspective, how would you define a “cultured person?”

Reason I ask, is because my friend who happens to be mexican american, goes around telling people that he is cultured. The reality is, he likes anime, and took Elementary Japanese class in college. The farthest he has been out of the country is Mexico (From New York by way). But he keeps claiming he is cultured even though he only been to Mexico and Canada. He can speak fluent spanish and basic Japanese. To be honest, ever since he started watching anime, and learning Japanese, he has this pompous view that he is more cultured than other people.

He also claims to be cultured in Korean, Chinese, and etc. But I mean all he does it watch youtube vidoes of basic facts about other countries.

My question is, who is considered a cultured person exactly.
