Abstract
Language and culture are deeply intertwined, influencing and shaping one
another in dynamic and multifaceted ways. This paper explores the interaction between
language and culture, demonstrating how language serves as a vehicle of cultural
transmission, identity construction, and social integration. Through a review of
theoretical perspectives and real-world examples, this study aims to highlight the
significance of cultural context in linguistic expression and comprehension.
