Intercultural communication and the world
of the studied language
Languages should be studied in an
inseparable unity with the world and
culture of the peoples who speak these
languages.

To achieve effective communication
In addition to the meanings of words and
grammar rules, you need to know:
1) when, how, to whom, where to say or
write something;
2) how a given meaning or a concept live in
the real world of the language.

largely depend on
- the ability of the younger generation to show tolerance, respect
other cultural and social values,
- on their desire to understand each other and cooperate with each
other,
- on their ability to find ways to resolve socio-cultural conflicts.
