- Abstract
With the largest population of English learners in the world and the importance of cultural knowledge in foreign language education, it is of great significance to associate the concept of language and culture with ELT in China. This paper utilizes Risager’s perspective of languaculture to discuss its role of in China’s ELT, aiming at removing cultural barriers and discovering cultural knowledge that is essential to the English classes. Findings from the research demonstrate that teaching semantics and pragmatics is critical to achieving proper language usage while poetic texts can have both positive and negative effects on ELT, and that identity can be strongly formed in terms of construction and transition.
