BILINGUAL COMMUNICATION CULTURE

The present paper deals with the notions of ―bilingualism‖, ―culture‖ and ―bilingual communication‖ which reveal the essence of ―bilingual communication culture‖ and its conceptual subsystems. The content analysis of ―communication culture‖ and ―international communication culture‖ makes it possible to posit the bilingual communication culture as related to them but still a self-contained notion. Its structure is shown as a complex system of knowledge, world view and conduct components. Their development makes bilingual communication constructive and leads to reaching mutual understanding in cross-cultural interaction between the representatives of different nations and cultures. Focusing on the nature and structure of the bilingual communication culture, the further extensive researches have to be carried out into the ways of increasing its level and the efficiency of the bilingual communication with the representatives of other nations correspondingly.
