2. 3 major socio-cultural elements influencing perception and communication

Cultural value, world view , social organizations.

3.What is globalization?

Globalization is a process of interaction and integration among the people, companies, and gover nments of different nations。 a process driven by international trade and investment and aided b

y information technology. This process has effects on the environment, on culture, on political sys tems, on economic development and prosperity, and on human physical well-being in societies around the world.

4.What are the stumbling blocks in intercultural communication?

(1)assumption of similiarities: people expect that simply being human and having common

requirements of food,shelter,security and so on makes everyone alike.

(2)Language differences.: “yes”and “no” cause trouble.

(3)Nonverbal misinterpretatons: misinterpretation of observable sians and

symbols—gesture ,postures, body movenment.

(4)Preconceptions and stereotypes: Arabs are “inflammable”may cause U.S.students to keep

their distance .

(5)Tendence to evaluate: to approve or disapprove ,to statements and actions of other person

U2:

1.What is culture?

Culture is a very extensive concept, it is very difficult to define it strictly and accurately, because culture involves too much. Culture is a complex system of behavior, values, beliefs, traditions

and artifacts, which is transmitted through generations.

What are the five basic needs for human beings?

(1)physiological needs (things that make us alive,food water air)

(2)safety needs (physical safe and psychologicallly secure)

(3)belongingness needs (needs tobe accepted by others and to belong to a group )

(4)esteem needs ( recognition, reputation,self respect )

(5)self-actualization needs (actualize onself and to reach one’s full potential)

2.What are values, attitudes, beliefs and behaviors? How are they linked?

(1)Values are what people go to war over or conduct bussiness by. Values tell us how to weigh

the worth of something, they can indicate a relative hierarchy.

than on proof or fact.

(4)Links: values underlie attitudes and also shape beliefs. Attitudes are based on beliefs as well

as values.values enable us to evaluate what matters to us or apply standars to our attitudes and beliefs.value→belief →attitude. For example , you have an attitude toward eating raw

fish,which is positive and is based on the belief that expert prepararion of sushi and sashimi by Japanese chefs results in culinary delicacies ,or you have an attitude that is negative,based on the belief that raw fish can contain parasites that cause unpleasant consequences in the human digestive system. You can even have both attitudes at the same time.if you do ,then probably you value both fine eating experiences and physical health.

3.What are the elements of communication?

①context: physical setting, psychological ,historical,culture ,the communication norms

②participants: senders who form messages and communicate with symbols, receiverswho

process and react the massages.

③Massages: meanings, symbols ,encodings and decodings

④Channels :a variety of sensory channels

⑤Noise ;internal external and semantic noise.

⑥Feedback : the verbal and nonverbal responses

of messages and behavior are proper in a given context or with a particular person or group of people. People acquire communication norms from their experiences in life.

5.What is the difference between encoding and decoding?

Encoding is the process of transforming ideas and feelings into symbols and organizing them. Decoding is the process of tansforminf meeages backe into ideas and feelings.

Transforming and organizing Transforming and intepreting

ideas and feelings--------------------→symbols/massages------------→ideas and feelings

6.What is the difference between external noise, internal noise and semantic noise? external noise : Sights and sounds and other stimuli in the environment that draw people’s attention away from intended meaning.

internal noise : Thoughts and feelings that interfere with the communication process. Feelings of anger or anxiety ,stereotypeor prejudice in your mind.

youself.,learn to be sensitive to other’s feels(子所不欲勿施于人)

(4)people should be skilled ,educated hardworking,thrifty ,modest, patient and persevering.

3.How do living situations account for value differences between different cultures?

For example,Japanese live in a little of arable land ,even mainly valcanoes.thus,they built their homes together very closely in order to make use of every available land and they can work together in planting and harvesting of rice effectively . In this situation, japanenes’central social valuebecause of living close proximity that gave very little privacy was that an idividual does not matter. However, in the U.S. it is common to see a pattern of a single farmhouse surrounded by firelds.the nearnest neighbor was perhaphs two miles distant.inevitably, the central social values

were self-reliance and independence.

4.What are cultural values?

The commonly held standards of what is acceptable or unacceptable, important or unimportant, right or wrong, good or bad, true or false, workable or unworkable, etc., in a community or society.

Values represent a learned organization of rules for making choices and for resolving the

conflicts.

5.What are the five dimensions to consider when doing studies of cultural differences(culture

value)?

short-term orientation toward changing events)

Low-context interaction emphasizes direct talk, person-oriented focus, self-enhancement mode,

and the importance of “talk”: high- context interaction, in contrast stresses indirect talk, status-oriented focus , self- esffacement mode, and the importance of nonverbal signals and even silence.

U4:

1.What is the relationship between language and culture?

Culture and language are interwined and shaped each other. Each time we select words ,form sentence, and send a message ,either oral or written,we also make cultural choices. Cultural literacy(特定领域的能力或知识) is necessary to understand the language being used.

(1)all languages have social questions and information questions.

For exemple: in Ameirca English ,the question “How are you” is a social question,the Americans register the phrase as “hello”. But in Germany and Russia ,the phase is an imformation qustion .the speaker atually wants to get an answer to it.

(2) language reflects the environment in which we live .

For exemple, in the Amazon area snow is not part of the environment. Therefore , people in that region do not have a word for snow . however , most Americans ,who live an environment where

Iit snows most months of the year, use terms such as snow , sleet , slush, blizzard and ice.

(3)language reflects cultural values. a way of thinking .

when we translate concepts from a foreign language and cultural with words ,we have to choose

the priority words in oder to communicate effectively. Cultural kowledge is impotant as linguistic knowledge.

For example ,Amerians are frustrated with the manana mentality(西班牙语的明天心态) of Spanish-speaking countries : for American tomorrow means midnight to midnight ,a very precise time period , To Mexicans ,manana means in the future,soon.

(4,)Different cutures use identical words that have rather different meanings.

For example, for Amercans ,adminisration in the university context means department chair or dean,for Frenches adminisration means upper level clerical staff . What Americans consider to be an adminstrator, Frenches consider faulty.

(5)language changes overtime.words and prases that are used commonly at one time may be discontinued or their meaning my change overtime.

For example, the word gay means happy lightened. In recent decades ,however the word has taken on the meaning” homosexual”.English speaking countries do n’ t use the original meaning anymore..

Communication across cultures and language is difficult and full of hurdles and pitfalls. Even if two people from different countries spesk a common language ,they may misinteptet the cutural signal. If that happens ,in all likelihood , there will be a cutural problem rhather than a language problem.

2.What is the relationship between environment and language?

(2) language reflects the environment in which we live .

For exemple, in the Amazon area snow is not part of the environment. Therefore , people in that region do not have a word for snow . however , most Americans ,who live an environment where

Iit snows most months of the year, use terms such as snow , sleet , slush, blizzard and ice.

3.How does language change over time?

language changes overtime.words and prases that are used commonly at one time may be discontinued or their meaning my change overtime.

For example, the word gay means happy lightened. In recent decades ,however the word has taken on the meaning” homosexual”.English speaking countries do n’ t use the original meaning

anymore..

4.Denotations and connotations

Denotations: denotations of a word or phrase are the meanings that relate it to the objects or concepts referred to the actual or fictional “things”that are symbolized.

For example, the denotation of the English word “bird”is a tow –legged,winged,egg-laying creature.

Connnotations: connnotations refer to the additional meanings that a word or phrase has beyond its central meaning .These meanings show people’s attitudes or feelings toward what the word or phase refers to.

For example: consider the word “dog” in English and 狗in Chinese. They can be said to have the same denotative meaning;however,people from different cutures may have different connotative reactions to these words ,compare “a homeless dog” (流浪狗) with 丧家之犬

5.What are the ways of expressing “no”? Why do people in countries like Japan and China

often refuse to say “no” directly?

(1)be vague

(2)be silent or ask a question

(3)change the topic or leave

(4)tell a white lie or refuse to answer the question. Say one cannot answer

(5)put the reaponsibility to the trird party or offering an alternative.

The reason: In J apan and China’s culture ,to refuse an invitation or request with “no”, or a similar phrase, is felt to be impolite. It is thought to be selfish and unfriendly.

6.How does language affect people’s perception and experiences?

The language we use may to some exten determine the way we perceive and experience the world.

(!)in japan language varies substantially in different social situatons like sddressing superior peers and inferiors.

(2) the Thailand language

(3)splanish language reveals male dominance through use of gendered nouns and pronouce. A group of man referred to as ello, agroup of wemen referred to as ellas

7.What are the five intended types of equivalence when doing translation?

(1)lexical equivalence 例子;there is no equivlent to the English color word blue in Russian.

Russia only have the according words of light blue and dark blue that an be translated into

English.

(2)Idiomatic equivalence : “raining cats and dogs”

(3)Grammatical equivalence ;’in Filipino language ,there is no equivalent of the english verb

“to be”.

(4)Experience equivalence

(5)Conceptual equivalence

8.Why do people say language is always ambiguous?

(1)we can never fully control the meanings of the things we say and write in the way of

paticipants interpret

(2)language can never fully express our meanings whether in writing or speaking

(3)whether the participants share the same assumptions and knowledge about the world or

not.

U5:

1.What is a rich point?

Conversation is a rich point ,a rich point is something in one culture that makes it difficult to be connected with another culture.

2.What basic differences can we still find between the English-speaking p eople and the

Chinese people concerning compliment and response?

In English countrries, the “best way “to respond to a compliment is to accept it. Rejection of compliments is often regarded as a symptom of problem, such as low self-esteem. In contrast to english ,the best way rasponse to compliments in Chinese is traditionally thought to be a rejection or denial. A denial is the routinized response to a compliment.

3.What are the differences between “high involvement”style and “high considerateness”

style?

High involvement styles tend to : (1) talk more ;(2)interrupt more ; (30 expect to to be interrupted (4) talk more loudly at times and (5) talk more quickly than those from cultures favoring “high considerateness styles.

Japanes conversationstyle is like a bowling game,answer to questions are carefully thought out rather than blurted out ,enven long silences are tolerated. Give a answer to a question must be given enough time .

6.Cross-cultural verbal communication styles

Our verbal communication styles reflects our cultural and personal values and sentiments.

verbal styles(uphold formality in the human relationship)

(3)self-enhancement (boast one’s accomplishments and ablilities) and self-oriented verbal styles

(signal modesty or humanity)

7.What cultural implications are there underlying the difference between

speaker-responsibility and listener-responsibility in organizational structure?187

In Speaker-responsible language, the speaker provides the structure and therefore much of the specific meaning of the statement. Because the speaker want to tell the listener exactly what is goning to be talked about,and what the speaker wants the listener to know. Prior knowledge of

the speaker’s intent is necessary.

In listener-responsible language, speakers need to indicate only indirectly what they are discussing. The listener is forced to construct the meaning and usually does so ,based on shared kownledge between the speaker and the listener.

eye contact, smile, touch)

Height ,height equels power and wemen are not supposed to be more powerful than man, taller women may attempt to diminsh themselves,so as to retreat as little space as possible.

Gaze, looking directly into person’s eyes can connote an aggressive threat, a sexual invitation,or a desire for honest and open communication. in some culture, children are taught that to look adults in the eyes is a sign of disrespect. In mixed-sex paries,women are more likely than men to avert their eyes.

Gesture and demeanor ,or “act like a lady”.

Artifactual (objects)message , when worn ,they have beed used to signify a wear’s gender, culture, and socioeconomic class. From the moment at which families or hospital assign infants pink or

跨文化交际学概论笔记汇总

跨文化交际学概论笔记 第一章跨文化交际 一、什么是跨文化交际——具有不同文化背景的人从事交际的过程跨文化交际之所以在今天日益引起人们的注意,主要原因是由于交通工具的进步与通讯手段的发展,使得不同国家、不同种族、不同民族的人能够频繁地接触和交往。L.S.Harms 认为,在世界范围内的交际经历了五个阶段:语言的产生;文字的使用;印刷技术的发明;近百年交通工具的进步和通讯手段的迅速发展;跨文化交际。近二十年来的交际是以跨文化为特征的。 二、第二章跨文化交际学 跨文化交际学在美国Intercultural Communication (与人类学、心理学、传播学关系密切) 1.首先在美国兴起。美国有来自各个国家的移民,有各自的文化系统和风俗习惯,逐渐在美国社会形成了多元文化的格局;美国与各国交往频繁。 2.Edwar Hall 《无声的语言》跨文化交际学的奠基之作。认为不同文化背景的人们在使用时间、空间表达意义方面表现出明显的差异。(对时间、空间、交际的关系作了深入探讨) 3.1970 年是具有重要意义的一年在这一年,国际传播学会承认跨文化交际学是传播学的一个分支,成立了跨文化交际学分会。1972 年,第一届跨文化交际学国际会议,日本东京。 第四章交际 一、交际与传播 这两词来源于同一英语communication表示的是同一个概念,不同学科背景的人采用不同术语。有语言学背景的学者大多使用“交际”,从事传播学教学和研究的学者都采用“传播”。 三、传播的种类 传播可分为人类传播和非人类传播;人类传播又可分为社会传播和非社会传播。非社会传播指内向传播(自我传播),社会传播包括人际传播,组织传播,大众传播。 内向传播(intarpersonal communication)只一个人自己脑子里在自我交流活动或是自言自语 人际传播(interpersonal communication)两个人或以上的信息传受过程。如交谈,书信,小组讨论,大会演讲等。 组织传播(organizational communication)在学校,公司,工厂,机关,军队,党派,群众团体等内部的传播,不都是自上而下的,可具有不同模式,纵式或横式,要注意因文化差异造成的传播不通的局面。 大众传播(mass communication)职业化的传播机构利用机械化,电子化的技术手段向不特定的多数人传送信息的行为或过程,如报刊杂志,广播电视,因特网信息等。 第四章语言交际 一、语言与文化密不可分 (语言反映一个民族的文化,同时有受到文化的巨大影响。)语言与文化有着密切的关系。由于语言的产生和发展,人类文化才得以产生和传承。不存在没有语言的文化,也不存在没有文化的语言。广义的文化包括语言,同时文化又无时无刻不在影响语言,使语言为了适应文化发展变化的需要而变得更加精确和缜密。语言既是文化的载体,又是文化的写照。 E.g.①亲属称谓是语言反映文化的一个突出例证。汉族不仅注重长幼顺序,而且对于是父系、母系或婚系亦十分重视。古人有强烈的传宗接代的观念,按血缘远近区别亲疏,家族里又有内外嫡庶之别。——后来亲属称谓的简化,意味着家族关系在社会生活中不占那么重要的地位。在我国个别地区的亲属称谓中,只有男性称谓,没有女性称谓,可能是古代父系社会的

有关跨文化交际的读书笔记

《跨文化交际学概论》读书报告

《跨文化交际学概论》是胡文仲教授于1998在北京编写的。 胡文仲,1935 年生于天津,祖籍江苏。北京外国语大学教授,博导,《外国文学》主编。曾任北京外国语大学副校长,高校外语专业教材编审委员会副主任、主任;高校外语专业教学指导委员会主任;欧美同学会副会长;国务院学位委员会外文学科组成员。现任中国英语教学研究会会长;中国跨文化交际研究会会长;中国高校英语口语协会会长。由于长期从事英语教学和研究、跨文化交际研究和澳大利亚文学研究,他共出版了专著6部,教材4部,编著10部,译著5部,在国内外发表论文数十篇,并一直享有盛名。 早在80年代初期胡文仲就开始对跨文化交际学感兴趣,在国外的生活学习使他更加明白了学习英语国家文化习俗的重要性。回国后他也多次在杂志上发表过一些有关中西文化差异的文章,但随着更多的学习和研究,胡文仲发现目前我国的研究一般性的探讨较多,而基于大量数据研究比较少,他认为跨文化交际学的研究不应仅限于研究不同文化背景的人们在语际方面遇到的问题,还可以从心理学、人类学、社会学等不同的角度进行。因此,他开始编写《跨文化交际学概论》这本书,目的是通过理论和实例能够帮助不同层次的读者普及跨文化知识和理论,作为他们研究跨文化交际学的入门向导。 首先,对本书进行简单的概括介绍。《跨文化交际学概论》这本书共有十二章,被作者概括为五大部分。第一部分(第一章至第二章)主要是为跨文化交际进行定义及对跨文化研究的不同理解,并对跨文化交际学在世界各地的发展史及其成就做了详尽的描述。第二部分(第三章至第四章)是作者对文化和交际的定义,特征及在跨文化交际中的地位进行了阐述。第三部分(第五章至第九章)是跨文化交际的过程,这一部分内容被作者依次分为了语言交际、非语言交际、社会交往、人际关系和经营管理;在这几章中,胡文仲教授对每一个过程的作用和特征都通过举例做了说明。第四部分(第十章)是跨文化交际的核心内容---价值观。价值观是文化中最深层的一个部分,支配着人们的信念、态度和行动。因此,作者就价值观与交际的关系、价值观的特点、有关价值观的研究几个方面进行了描述。第五部分(第十一章至第十二章)的内容为提高跨文化意识,也就是教人们如何在实践中应对跨文化的有关问题。 胡文仲编写的这本书在很多观点上都有了新的突破,就像之前的文章大都只侧重于研究跨文化交际的一个角度,仅仅关心不同文化背景的人们在语言交际方面遇到的问题,没有更

Case 1 Girl-ness As a visiting professor in an American university, Zhang Hua was invited to give a lecture to a group of American students. He talked about university students in China. During the question-and-answer period after the lecture, one female s tudent asked a question that surprised Zhang Hua. “When you talked about female students, you referred to them as girls. Why?” “Because they are girls. That’s what they are called,” Zhang Hua tried to answer, but he knew he did not really understand the in tent of the question. “ I don’t quite understand your question, I’m afraid.” “In the States, we call ourselves ‘ women’ if we’re old enough to go to the university.
