The problem of
misunderstanding in
intercultural communication

2.

Introduction
In today's world, where globalization has a
significant impact on all aspects of our lives,
especially in the economic sphere, there is
an increasing need to develop effective
communication processes between
representatives of different cultures.
Intercultural communication is becoming a
key element of successful interaction, but it
often faces the problem of
misunderstanding due to differences in
cultural, linguistic and social aspects.

Definition of
intercultural
communication
Intercultural communication is the
process of information exchange
and interaction between people
from different cultures. It includes
not only verbal but also non-verbal
aspects of communication such as
gestures, facial expressions, tone of
voice, etc.

4.

Types of
Intercultural
Communication
There are three main types of
intercultural communication:
● Verbal communication exchanging information and
emotions through speech.
● Nonverbal communication - using
gestures, facial expressions, and
other nonverbal cues to convey
information.
● Paraverbal communication includes tone of voice, intonation,
and other aspects of speech that
can affect the meaning of the
message.

Examples of
misunderstandings
in intercultural
communication
Misunderstandings in intercultural
communication can come about for a
variety of reasons, such as:
Presumption of similarity - when people
suggest that others share their views
and believes, which can lead to
misunderstandings.
Language differences - using one
meaning of a word instead of all possible
meanings can cause confusion.
False nonverbal interpretation misinterpreting gestures and facial
expressions can lead to conflict.
stereotypes - over-reliance on
stereotypes can interfere with objective
perceptions of other cultures.
Desire for appreciation - different cultural
values can be a barrier to effective
communication.
Increased anxiety or stress - intercultural
communication can cause anxiety and
stress, which also affects the quality of
communication.

Examples from
different
cultures

7.

Different cultures have unique communication characteristics that
can cause miscommunication when communicating crossculturally.
In Brazil, the “OK” gesture can be taken as an insult because it resembles the gesture of a heel.
In Turkey and Greece, the OK gesture is used to indicate a person's non-traditional orientation.
In Russia, touching the chin does not carry a negative connotation, but in France and Belgium
this gesture can be perceived as aggression.
In the US, Russia, and the UK, a raised thumb indicates approval, but in Greece this gesture is
used to ask for silence.
In Australia, sticking out one's tongue can be perceived as a threat or a challenge, which can
lead to a fight.
In Tibet, a sticking out tongue symbolizes friendliness and peaceful intentions.
In Italy, a raised palm means an emotional exclamation of “What do you want?”, while in Egypt
the gesture means “I'll be there in a minute”.
In Israel, a raised palm is used to ask to suspend a conversation or argument.
These examples emphasize the importance of learning and adapting
to cultural sensitivities for successful intercultural communication.

Consequences of
Misunderstanding
Misunderstanding in intercultural
communication can have serious
impacts such as:
● Conflicts and misunderstandings
- misunderstanding the intentions
and actions of others can lead to
conflicts.
● Loss of trust - if
miscommunication is repeated, it
can undermine trust between
parties.
● Reduced effectiveness of
cooperation - misunderstandings
can make it difficult for people
from different cultures to
cooperate effectively.

communication, it is necessary to:
Explore cultural differences - understanding the cultural backgrounds of others can help
avoid many misunderstandings.

you communicate more effectively.
