Abstract
"This M.A. thesis aims to find out how socio-cultural context influences foreign language Spanish learners from different nationalities to communicate in spanish. This study will provide insights on how participants perceive their context in and outside the classroom, as well as, interpersonal interactions between native and foreign speakers to foster and improve communication. Interviews were required to collect participants’ responses. The information gathered was qualitatively classified and analyzed with the use of the appraisal system, aiming to understand how foreign language learning is built in relation to socio-cultural context. The results of this study will help to understand how language learners learned and use the foreign language by the influence of a foreign context in the foreign context".
