DIE ROLLE DES LANDESKUNDLICHEN ASPEKTS BEIM ERLERNEN EINER FREMDSPRACHE

Abstract

The interdisciplinary nature of the content of the discipline «Foreign Language» has ample opportunities to create a socio-cultural educational space. The use of socio-cultural approach in language education allows in a new, deeper and more meaningful way to reveal all the components of the concept of the level of functional socio-cultural literacy. In modern concepts of learning a foreign language is seen as a reflection of the culture of the people, mastering a foreign culture and the acquisition of spiritual values. This task is set by linguistics, which investigates the selection and methods of providing students with information about the country whose language is being studied, in order to ensure their practical knowledge of the language. Linguistics is an aspect of the methodology of teaching foreign languages ​​that reflects the national and cultural component of the language material. After all, without instilling in students the norms of adequate language behavior in isolation from knowledge, it is impossible to prepare them for foreign language communication and to form communicative ability. It follows that the development of the linguistic aspect in the teaching of a foreign language is extremely relevant and important. Every national culture consists of national and international elements and cannot fully correspond to another culture. Therefore, while learning a foreign language, we are forced to spend time developing students’ ideas about new subjects and phenomena. Thus, we are talking about the inclusion of elements of country studies in language teaching, but this is the inclusion of a slightly different kind compared to general country studies. Since we are talking about the connection in the educational process of language and information in the field of national culture, this type of teaching is called linguistics teaching.
