In Hong Kong a majority of Cantonese speaking Chinese students have to learn in
English - their second language - from a team of multicultural academics, for whom
English may also be a second language.
03. Language always carries meanings and references beyond itselfю The meanings
of a particular language represent the culture of a particular social group.
02. Culture is a product of the human mind and it is defined, propagated and sustained
through language.
04. Since each culture has its own language set and ways of communicating, cross
cultural communications can be quite difficult for individuals.
05. In approximately 80% of the world’s languages, women may communicate at a
deficit which is specified as the ‘woman register’ and this places them as inferior to
men. This leads to social friction when genders from diverse cultures communicate.

.
Language and culture are unique human abilities. The ability to create a
structured language for communication is what makes humans and our culture
distinct from other species. Humans learn their culture through language and
foreign cultures are also transmitted through language.
02.
Language influences culture. Language influences culture in diverse ways and
provides people from other cultures with a window into understanding cultures other
than theirs. Studies show that the vocabulary of any language tends to place
emphasis on words that are considered to be adaptively important to the
corresponding culture. Therefore learning the terminologies commonly used by a
culture provides a measure of understanding of the way of life of its people.
03.
The relationship between language, culture and gender. Studies have shown
that the language used by specific genders fluctuates in almost every culture.

The culture plays a major role in language. Humans are born without a
language but are born with language-acquisition faculties which enable us
learn languages. Research shows that humans learn their local language
through cultural transmission rather than from formal learning. This research
goes further to state that to understand specific words and literary terms of a
language, an individual must be familiar with the culture of that society.
05
.
There is a strong relationship between language and culture in numbers.
There are approximately 6,000 different languages in the world and these are
shared among the 9,000 different cultures currently existing on earth. Linguists
have shown concern that 5% of the least used languages in the world are in
danger of becoming extinct and in the next 100 years, 90% of all world
languages will either be extinct or moribund. Lastly, an entire way of thinking
— cultures — gets lost to the human race each time a language goes extinct.
