The first sentence of the ppt already called my attention before i even finish it. It says that "being communicative competent is more important than know how to use the linguintic components of a language". I think to be communicative competent one must know how to use the linguistic components of a language, if he/she does not, then there wont be communication. The difference is that some people are aware of these linguistic uses and others are not (kids, for example).

Even learning a second language, sts will tend to come back to their native language. The example of the Jananese people learning English was really good. I think its not necessary for sts to know about American culture if they are learning English. Its not necessary, but it`s extremely important. It`s different.
