Hapanovich Y. FRENCH AND BELARUSIAN FAMILIES IN THE CONTEXT OF CROSS-CULTURAL COMMUNICATION
The article deals with semantic grounds for variation in communication roles in situation of intercultural communication. The author submits that there is an insufficient representation of culturally marked words in Belarusian and French dictionaries, that does not allow to establish equivalence between family life’s realities belonging to different linguistic and cultural communities. Under these circumstances it is impossible to retain cultural component of lexical units in its entirety when it is transmitted to foreign-language communicants and represents one’s own national culture. The content of authentic texts is of particular importance for revealing the semantic bases of cross-cultural communication as well as extracting culturally marked lexemes. When expressing cultural semantics, it is important to take into account the specifics of extra-linguistic extended contexts. Their reconstruction provides a high level of students’ socio-cultural competence studying French at linguistic university.
