Professor Stefanie Alexa Stadler, Faculty of Letters Department of English, discusses how cultural differences can affect the dynamics of informal communications in a new linguistic report.
Intercultural communication is vital in today’s growing and connected world. However, differences in cultural and linguistic practices often result in miscommunication. Emphasizing the relevance of culture in informal communication, Professor Stadler explores how cultural differences can affect interaction patterns. The study discusses diverse interactions from East and Southeast Asian settings to reveal how culture often becomes the focal point in conversation, which plays a vital role in international communication.
