FROM TRADITION TO IDENTITY: THE ROLE OF CUSTOM IN CULTURAL LANGUAGE EXPRESSION

This article explores how traditions and customs are embedded in cultural languages and shape intercultural communication. It highlights the interplay between language and cultural identity, arguing that idioms, proverbs, and social norms embedded in languages serve as carriers of collective memory. Drawing on the theories of Hall, Hofstede, and Kramsch, the paper examines examples from diverse linguistic backgrounds and suggests methods for promoting cultural awareness in language learning.
