Wardhaugh (2002.Above, Salzmann is quoted by he appears to define language with consideration for Thanasoulas as saying that language is 'a key to the context, something Thanasoulas (2001) more directly cultural past', but it is also a key to the cultural present compiled in the following.that is, from the socially inherited assemblage of practices and beliefs that determines the texture of our lives (Sapir, 1970, p. 207).It is therefore clear While Wardhaugh does not mention culture per se, the how important it is for members of any society to speech acts we perform are inevitably connected with understand the actual power of their words and actions the environment they are performed in, and therefore when they interact.Consequently, a knowledge of rules and principles and of the in composing a definition for culture, we can see ways of saying and doing things with sounds.that the concept is often better understood in the words, and sentences rather than just knowledge context of how the members of a culture operate, of specific sounds, words, and sentences. p. 2) defines language to be: culture must also be kept in balance.both individually and as a group.in its ability to express what is (and has been) thought, .)anguage does not exist apart from culture.

Consequently, a knowledge of rules and principles and of the in composing a definition for culture, we can see ways of saying and doing things with sounds. that the concept is often better understood in the words, and sentences rather than just knowledge context of how the members of a culture operate, of specific sounds, words, and sentences. both individually and as a group.

In a sense, it is 'a key to the cultural past of a society" (Salzmann, 1998, p. 41), a guide to 'social reality' (Sapir, 1929. p. 209, cited in Salzmann, 1998, p. 41). And if we are to discuss a relationship between language and culture, we must also have some understanding of what culture refers to. Goodenough (1957, p. 167, taken from Wardhaugh, 2002 p. 219) explains culture in terms of the participatory responsibilities of its members. He states that a society's culture is made up of whatever it is one has to know or believe in order to operate in a manner acceptable to its members, and to do so in any role that they accept for any one of themselves. Malinowski (Stern, 2009) views culture through a somewhat more interactive design, stating that it is a response to need, and believes that what constitutes a culture is its response to three sets of needs: the basic needs of the individual, the instrumental needs of the society, and the symbolic and integrative needs of both the individual and the society.
