1. Relationship between language and culture Relationship between language and culture can be summarized as the following: (1) Language is part of culture. Like other cultural phenomenon, language is also a social phenomenon, it occurred with the production of society, and develops with the development of society. Language has all the attributes (属性) of culture, so language is also a kind of culture. The language is with nationality, different nationalities often have different languages. It is the most important spiritual wealth of human society .We can say that the human language is not only a part of culture, but also the most important part. (2)Language is the main carrier of culture. Although language is part of culture, other cultural phenomenon generally can't exist independently from language. Only through language, culture can be preserved, extended and spread, just like the inheritance of history and the spread of religion. (3)Language is a mirror of culture Language reflects a nation's culture and reveals the contents of the national culture. Through a national language, people can understand the nation‘s customs, lifestyles, ways of thinking and other features. Above all, we can conclude that language and culture not only in close relationship, but also the special relationship. 2. How should we do As we all know the relationship of language and culture, we get some inspiration. Let’s see how should we do. (1)Understand and respect Firstly, we should understand and respect the language and culture of different countries. Different nations have different cultures, this is true. The same thing, this culture can accept it, but not necessarily be acceptable in another culture. We cannot judge a culture by "good" and "bad". It is simply that different people do the same things in different manners, even though we cannot understand. We should show the respect. If we treat people different from us with respect, love and fair, you will see they will treat us in the same way. (2)Keep learning The purpose of learning a foreign language is to communicate. When we learn the pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar and other linguistic knowledge of a language, you must also understand the cultural background of the language. If lack of understanding of the language and cultural backgrounds, misunderstandings even embarrassing situation will occur when you communicate with ethnic people using this language. Therefore, we should understand and master the language and cultural differences between Western and Chinese cultures, and strive to cultivate the ability to cross-cultural communication. Learn and understand the features and differences between different cultures, I believe this is the best way to make our life become more comfortable and make the world more harmonious. In short, language is one of the most important carriers of culture and culture has a great impact on language in conditioning. They both cannot survive with each other. On the other hand, the difference of language and culture may arouse inconvenience and misunderstanding. Therefore, learning the difference of cultures between different countries is very important. Realizing the difference of cultures between different nations is good for us to communicate with different languages. 3. Two sayings we give you (1)When in Rome, do as the Romans do. (2)Never too old to learn. 本文来源：https://www.dywdw.cn/0729d0eba68da0116c175f0e7cd184254b351b66.html
