Cultural Dominance and EFL.
Alptekin, Cem
Canadian Modern Language Review, v39 n1 p56-62 Oct 1982
A type of acculturation occurs in developing countries that hinders English language learning because English is the linguistic vehicle of technological and sociological influences, and culture conflicts increase when the learners arrive in English-speaking environments different from their expectations. Suggestions are given for alleviating these cultural dominance effects. (Author/MSE)
