Outline (in English)

Without cultural knowledge, language users may not fully understand the meaning of a message. Even with perfect grammar, we could completely offend our conversational partners without using language in a culturally appropriate manner. In this course, we will take a close look at the face-saving strategies used in world languages. We will also consider and discuss diverse cultural values and orientations that are closely connected to verbal and non-verbal behavior in world cultures. This enhanced linguistic and cultural awareness will help you become a more tactful and respectful user of your first and second languages and prepare you for effective intercultural communication.
The preparation and review time of approximately two hours a week is recommended for this course. Your work will be evaluated through your participation (20%), language analysis quizzes (34%), language analysis journal entries, (16%), and a final presentation and materials (30%).
