The problem I work at: “The Linguocultural Aspect as the Means of Formation of Pupils’ Sociocultural Competence at the English Lessons” Actuality of the theme: • language and culture are undividable. Without cultural setting language itself is senseless; • connection between the language and culture of the nation is most vividly reflected in the facts linked with its state system, natural peculiarities, history and culture.
Linguoculturology is the humanity studying interconnections between language and culture. • Linguoculturology explores communicative processes in close linkage with consciousness of a nation, its traditions and customs; • It is closely interlinked not only with philology but also with philosophy, sociology, culturology etc.; • Formation of a foreign communicative competence is impossible without the formation of linguoculturological experience.
