Culture gap may give rise to a lot of misunderstanding and unpleasantness.
Does the underlined part sound right? If not, how would you say it? Thanks.

A lot of misunderstandings or rise to misunderstanding - other than that, it sounds fine. I would say "The cultural gap".
Thanks, tepatria.
Just to make sure, does "give rise to a lot of unpleasantness" sound good to you?

Well, no unpleasantness sounds good, but your sentence sounds just fine.
I'm sorry, tepatria, but what do you mean by "no unpleasantness?"
Sorry, my humour does not always translate well. I meant that I do not like unpleasantness in my life, or at any time. You asked if "give rise to unpleasantness" sounds good and I ignored the quotation marks. If that makes no sense to you, I will tell you that my humour often does not make sense to anyone, so it is not just the language barrier.
Thanks, tepatria.
I get it now.
