Objectives: provides with knowledge concerning the semiotic theoretical framework of intercultural communication explained by identifying the sign as the carrier of information and semiosis as the realization of meaning. The main goals are to establish relationship between the semiospheres, the nature of representamen, and the interpretant as factors affecting intercultural communication and to provide new understandings as well as indicate new research methods for translation.
Description. The ingredients involved in the process of semiosis are figured and their roles are identified to the semiotics theories, based on which a semiotic model of intercultural communication is established. This model is described in detail and the mechanism of intercultural communication revealed by the model is explained accordingly. Cultural codes and exchange of such codes in intercultural acts of communication are considered and transaltion is viewed as the passage from one system of coding into another. Potential contributions of semiotic theory into the study of the complexities of cross-cultural difference and their rendering in translation is combined with developing skills of choosing translation strategies that can fully engage questions of cultural context inherent in efforts to build intercultural knowledge.

Objectives: provides with knowledge and skills concerning the general approaches to language acquisition, acquisition of syntax and morphology, representation of language acquisition in the brain, vocabulary acquisition, and so on.
Description. Language acquisition is the process by which humans acquire the capacity to perceive and comprehend language, as well as to produce and use words and sentences to communicate. Language acquisition is one of the quintessential human traits because non-humans do not communicate by using language. Language acquisition includes first- and second-language acquisition, which is the study of the native language and of additional languages respectively. The capacity to successfully use language requires acquiring a range of tools including phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and an extensive vocabulary. Language can be vocalized as in speech, or manual as in sign. The human language capacity is represented in the brain. Even though the human language capacity is finite, one can say and understand an infinite number of sentences, which is based on a syntactic principle called recursion.
