Presenter Information

Session

Language and Culture

Description

When teaching a foreign language it is associated simply with grammar, syntax, phonetics, and it will not give learners real insights of the manners and lives of the people whose language they hope to speak.

Learners will have it easier to learn another language if teachers try to incorporate the culture within. It will be more entertaining as well as interesting for both parties. The following paper will try to discuss the Cultural phenomenon in acquiring a foreign language through the Ice Berg method, which will be broken down into its levels. The author will introduce the elements of a culture using the 3P model (Perspectives, Practices, and Products) focusing mainly in the Albanian language / culture acquisition.

The methodology is mainly a research and comparison of cultures and does not use statistical data.
