Description

Language and Culture explores the dynamic relationship between language and culture, demonstrating how language both reflects and shapes cultural identities, values, and social practices. Drawing on insights from applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, anthropology, and intercultural communication, the book examines the role of culture in language learning, communication, and meaning-making. It encourages readers to view language as a cultural practice rather than simply a means of communication, highlighting the importance of intercultural competence in language education. Recognized as a foundational work in the field, it is an essential resource for students, researchers, and educators in applied linguistics, language teaching, and intercultural studies.
