As an outgrowth of the idea of editing this book all the speakers were invited to write on a topic related to culture and foreign language learning and teaching. Consequently, issues such as pragmatics, translation, phonetics and phonology, intercultural communication, attitude change, cultural identity, cultural beliefs, cultural sensitivity, politics of language teaching, world English (es) and more, are all discussed here under the overarching umbrella of culture. It is hoped that this book can be an aid to those who are interested in addressing potential problems of foreign language learning and teaching, especially those issues as they relate to their cultural aspects.
