Language is more than just a set of grammatical rules and vocabulary; it is deeply intertwined with culture. Effective language learning goes beyond mastering linguistic structures—it requires an understanding of cultural nuances, social norms, and contextual meaning. This article explores the significance of integrating cultural context into language teaching and how it enhances learners' communicative competence.
