跨文化交际实训内容和要求
Warm-up
How do people carry out their communication? What is verbal communication? What do plum blossom, orchid, bamboo, and
chrysanthemum stand for in Chinese? Do they have the same meanings in English? How many terms do you know when you express thanks in Chinese? What topics do you think is appropriate when you first meet a foreigner from America?
I. Verbal Communication 言语 交际
The Relationship Between Language and Culture 语言与文化的关系
▪ Language and culture are like a living organism. Language is flesh, while culture is blood. Without culture, language would be dead; without language, culture would have no shape.
▪ Language and culture are like an iceberg. The language is the part above water while the greater part which is hidden beneath the surface is the invisible aspect of culture.
I. Verbal Communication 言语 交际
Low Context Rule oriented, people play by external rules More knowledge is codified, public, external, and accessible. Sequencing, separation--of time, of space, of activities, of relationships More interpersonal connections of shorter duration Knowledge is more often transferable Task-centered. Decisions and activities focus around what needs to be done, division of responsibilities. Examples: large US airports, a chain supermarket, a cafeteria, a convenience store, sports where rules are clearly laid out, a motel.

I. Verbal Communication 言语
交际
• High-context and Low-context language
高语境和低பைடு நூலகம்境语言
High Context Less verbally explicit communication, less written/formal information More internalized understandings of what is communicated Multiple cross-cutting ties and intersections with others Long term relationships Strong boundaries- who is accepted as belonging vs. who is considered an "outsider" Knowledge is situational, relational. Decisions and activities focus around personal face-to-face relationships, often around a central person who has authority. Examples: Small religious congregations, a party with friends, family gatherings, expensive gourmet restaurants and neighborhood restaurants with a regular clientele, undergraduate on-campus friendships, regular pick-up games, hosting a friend in your home overnight.
