The relationship between a language and its culture cannot be questioned. Language conveys
a representation of the world and expresses a reality that differs according to cultures. It’s not just a
tool for communication, because it generates symbolic relationships that shape people's
representations and worldviews. Our choice of words isn’t random, but rather reflects our thinking
and the world in which we live. Languages express the same things in different ways. To reach
culture, language is the best means because it’s a transmitter, product, and producer of cultures. The
research aims to emphasize the necessity of working on vocabulary to present everyday culture,
through examples that illustrate this close relationship between language and culture.
