4. Exercise 2
Do you know in which country the following freemail
service has around 38 million users according to their
company website?
www.hanmail.net
No? This is not a problem, neither do we.
6. Cultural knowledge
Knowledge about your own culture or about foreign
cultures helps us to process and to structure texts,
illustrations and informations.
If you lack a particular piece of knowledge, it will be
difficult, perhaps impossible to interpret perceived
illustrations correctly.
Cultural knowledge and informations are omnipresent -
naturally they‘re also on the web.
8. Culture
...behaviour patterns, ethical principles, traditions,
norms and values which are passed on to others,
practised and represented by members of a particular
culture.
Intercultural communication
...a social interaction between people who are
belonging to at least two different cultures.

intercultural conversations.
