Description
1. INTRODUCTION Language is the keystone of culture. Some social scientists maintain that culture would not be possible without language. On the other hand, language is influence and shaped by culture. In the broad sense, language is the symbolic representation of a people, and it comprises their historical and cultural backgrounds as well as their approach to life and their ways of living and thinking. (Deng Yanchang: 1989) from the above definitions, the close relationship can be seen between language and culture, that is, they can interact with each other. On the one hand, they evolved together and have been mutually dependent through their history. Understanding one requires understanding of the other; on the other hand, however, cultures differ from one another, so languages are diverse.
