Abstract

This article examines how ethnocultural research explores the relationship between language and cultural identity, focusing on linguistic and linguodidactic aspects. It highlights the role of language in expressing and preserving ethnocultural identity, using examples from linguistic ethnography, endangered languages, and cultural expressions embedded in language structures. The article also addresses the importance of integrating ethnocultural content into language teaching, emphasizing how it fosters intercultural competence. Additionally, it explores challenges in balancing language standardization with linguistic diversity in educational contexts, advocating for flexible linguodidactic approaches that respect cultural variation.
