Abstract

This study investigates the connection between pragmatic competence, politeness, and the impact of cultural differences on learning a foreign language. Through an analysis of diverse linguistic and cultural contexts, the study pinpoints the primary obstacles and tactics involved in attaining proficient communication in a second language. The study collects data using questionnaires, surveys of language learners from various cultural backgrounds, and interviews with language teachers and students. Multiple theoretical frameworks are applied to this study. These theoretical frameworks collectively provide a comprehensive basis for analyzing the interplay between cultural differences and the acquisition of politeness and pragmatic competence in a foreign language. According to the research, language learners must acquire pragmatic competence and an awareness of cultural norms to navigate social interactions successfully. With the help of this paper, teachers and students should improve cross-cultural communication and language teaching methods.
