Language
issues in cross-cultural communication
Language
is the tool used by humans to communicate, to express thoughts,
needs and feelings (Tomalin, & Hurn, 2013). Within the same
culture, the transmission of ideas is facilitated by similar
shared values and signals used to send a message (Tomalin, &
Hurn, 2013). Inter-cultural communication is the exchange of
messages originating from different cultural backgrounds, using
dissimilar signals, as well as ideas and meanings constructed in
an unfamiliar context (Tomalin, & Hurn, 2013). Consequently,
despite people communicating in a chosen common language, the
comprehension of the message within an “intermarriage
relationship” (Romano, 2008) is strongly influenced by the
different cultural traditions they bring to the marriage (Tomalin,
& Hurn, 2013). These differences may generate a number of
misunderstandings and undermine the conversation and agreement
between the couple (Tomalin, & Hurn, 2013).

Dificuldades
de linguagem na
comunicação
intercultural
A
linguagem é a ferramenta utilizada por seres humanos para se
comunicar, expressar pensamentos, necessidades e sentimentos
(Tomalin, & Hurn, 2013). Dentro da mesma cultura, a
transmissão de ideias é facilitada por valores e sinais
similares usados para enviar a mensagem (Tomalin, e Hurn, 2013).
Acomunicação intercultural é a troca de mensagens provenientes
de diferentes origens culturais, utilisando valores, idéias,
sinais e significados construidos em um contexto tambem
diferenciado (Tomalin, e Hurn, 2013). Consequentemente, apesar de
as pessoas se comunicarem em uma linguagem comum escolhida por
elas, a compreensão da mensagem dentro de um casamento
intercultural (Romano, 2008) é fortemente influenciado pelas
tradições culturais que eles trazem para o casamento (Tomalin, e
Hurn, 2013). Estas diferenças podem gerar uma série de
mal-entendidos e causar afastamento entre o casal (Tomalin, e
Hurn, 2013).
