Cultural awareness is the understanding that our own culture differs from one individual and group to the next, and specifically from our target language. Being culturally aware enables us to communicate with people more effectively, beyond words and grammar, by understanding their culture.
Language plays a huge part in building cultural awareness. Being fluent in a foreign language, however, doesn't necessarily mean that you are culturally savvy. This is because there are nuances -- and a whole range of meanings for words -- that native speakers use that you can't learn in school. You can only learn them by understanding the culture. Culture is the collective term used to identify the customs, social behavior, and ideas of a particular people or society; this is created over a long time.
