The central aim of language teaching is typically to prepare
learners to communicate through the language learnt. However, much
current language teaching theory and practice is based on a
simplistic view of communication that fails to match the
multilingual and intercultural reality of the majority of second
language (L2) use. This Element examines the relationship between
language and culture through an L2 in intercultural and
transcultural communication. It puts forward the argument that we
need to go beyond communicative competence in language teaching and
focus instead on intercultural and transcultural awareness.
Implications for pedagogic practice are explored including
intercultural and transcultural language education.
