    Cultural linguistics explores the relationship between language, culture, and conceptualization. It recognizes that learning a second language involves learning about another culture's ways of life, thinking, and experiences. Incorporating cultural knowledge into language teaching is important for intercultural communication, analyzing political discourse, reducing misunderstandings when learning about a local culture, and making language learning easier by understanding cultural backgrounds. Cultural linguistics also creates a "third culture" where learners gain new perspectives on their own and other cultures through language learning. Pakistan itself demonstrates linguistic diversity with over 65 languages spoken.

    ROLE OF CULTURAL LINGUISTICS IN L2 TEACHING


    AND LEARNING
    What is language, Culture Linguistic and Cultural linguistics?
     A language is a system of communication which consists of a set of sounds and
    written symbols which are used by the people of a particular country or region for
    talking or writing.
     Culture – set of patterns of human activity within a community or social group and
    the symbolic structures that give significance to such activity. Customs, laws, dress,
    architectural style, social standards, religious beliefs, and traditions are
    all examples of cultural elements.
     Linguistics is the study of language, language structure (such as sounds and
    meanings), linguistic patterns, how components of language interact with one
    another, how people gain knowledge of language, the way knowledge of language
    interacts with other cognitive processes and how language varies.
     Cultural Linguistics explores the interface between language, culture, and
    conceptualization (Palmer 1996; Sharifian 2011, 2017). he term Cultural Linguistics
    was perhaps first used by one of the founders of the field of cognitive linguistics,
    Ronald Langacker, in a statement he made emphasizing the relationship between
    cultural knowledge and grammar.

    Role of Cultural Linguistics in Second Language Teaching And Learning.


     The Relationship between Linguistics and Culture- The complex relationship
    between language and culture has always been a concern in the research on modern or
    foreign language teaching and learning, with extensive discussions in the literature on
    pedagogical approaches to culture in actual teaching practices (see a review in Byram
    and Feng 2004; Kramsch and Zhu 2016; Zhu 2019). Byram (1989), for example, argues
    that learning another language is part of a process of learning and understanding other
    people’s ways of life, ways of thinking, and socio-economic experience. Cultural
    knowledge and information therefore must form an integral part of language teachers’
    professional training and development as well as material design and classroom
    practice. Following some Points which relate culture and language and their need
    o Cultural Linguistics and intercultural communication
     Movies

     Knowing and speaking an L2 can imply positive changes in our life, for instance, the
    modification of certain attitudes of how we perceive others as well as our exterior
    environment. Learning a second language allows us to enrich our vision of the world,
    which gives us the opportunity to grow as human beings. L2 learning can be interesting
    and exciting and can be characterized by our own personal development.

     Taking a critical cultural studies perspective, Kramsch (2009) argues that language


    teaching and learning creates a ‘third culture’, a location where learners gain special
    insights into their own and others’ cultures through language learning and redefines the
    purpose of language teaching and learning as developing multilingual and intercultural
    Subjects.

     Overall, due to the multidisciplinary nature of the analytical tools and theoretical
    frameworks that Cultural Linguistics draws upon, it has significant potential to continue
    to shed substantial light on the nature of the relationship between language, culture, and
    conceptualization.
    Linguistic Diversity Example
    Pakistan has cultural and linguistic diversity with more than 65 different languages.
