An Interactive Approach to Culture, Language, and Translation from an Anthropological Perspective: Pedagogical and Research Implications for Intercultural and Inter-language Studies

This paper intends to offer a comparative, descriptive, and analytical investigation of the interaction between culture, language, and translation through the analysis of translatologists, linguists, and translator's approaches. The results of the study reveal that 67.44% of the researchers have investigated the interaction between language and culture. They believe that language and culture are integrated. Also 76.¬69% of the researchers maintain that human communication and translation have got cultural foundations. Moreover, 35.13% of the investigators believe that investigations in the areas of human communication such as language teaching, literature, and translation influence the nature of language, culture, and people's identity. The study shows that language is developed through culture and vice versa. And successful application of language in the world of language teaching, literature, and translation depends on culture and culture helps human beings to discover and develop teaching, learning, and problem solving strategies in the areas of language teaching, literature, and translation. Therefore, the nature of the data implies a cause and effect relationship between these variables. Then educational planning should include the investigation of the cultural origin of the language and the situations in which it is used.
