Abstract:

The central aim of language teaching is typically to prepare learners to
communicate through the language learnt. However, much current language
teaching theory and practice is based on a simplistic view of communication
that fails to match the multilingual and intercultural reality of the majority
of second language (L2) use. This Element examines the relationship between
language and culture through an L2 in intercultural and transcultural
communication. It puts forward the argument that we need to go beyond
communicative competence in language teaching and focus instead on
intercultural and transcultural awareness. Implications for pedagogic practice
are explored including intercultural and transcultural language education.
