This article examines the interconnection between language and culture from linguistic, sociocultural, and communicative perspectives. The study analyzes the role of language as a carrier of cultural values and national identity, as well as the influence of culture on vocabulary, communication styles, and discourse.

 The article also explores the importance of intercultural communication in the era of globalization and digital technologies. Scientific approaches proposed by Edward Sapir, Benjamin Lee Whorf, Claire Kramsch, and David Crystal are discussed in relation to language and cultural interaction. The research concludes that language and culture are inseparable phenomena that mutually influence human cognition, communication, and social development.
