 Re: Is non-biased ESL possible?
Reminds me of a quote by a Romanian/French author I like, Emil M. Cioran. (A bit of a pessimistic read, don't judge me LOL) Anyway, it says " One does not inhabit a country; one inhabits a language"
Reminds me of what Mark said, language and culture are inseparable. Even teaching in the US, being so involved with other cultures and languages at times I feel as if I could be in the students home country.
Of course... I'm always confused by what exactly is American Culture? McDonalds, Coca-cola, blue jeans, baseball? |
