Beschreibung
Language and culture relate to each other. It is important to refine teaching processes to enable language learners to use target languages effectively. This book shows that language and culture should be viewed in their interrelationship as they have a significant impact on the naturalness and appropriateness of discourse.
This book presents the results of an empirical investigation based on theoretical insights into and empirical verification of the concepts referring to intercultural communicative competence in the Slovak educational system, focusing on culture and its relation to language. Their intertwinedness was proved through thorough analyses of the national curricula for languages, based on the CEFR descriptors and language course books and attitudes of teachers and undergraduate students towards developing ICC in local English language teaching. Language professionals should be aware of how cultural context affects the way language is used to construct, interpret and communicate meanings.
