中文摘要:跨文化交际（国际交流或跨文化交际）是指不同的文化背景的人们之间的沟通。跨文化沟通，即跨文化交际，不正确发音，语法和词汇的错误可能导致相互误解和沟通障碍。但是，当语音和语法是正确的，障碍会继续产生由于一方不能准确表达自己的思想；要么对对方的话题缺乏反应；要么说话口气过于肯定或是显得盛气凌人等。目前，跨文化交际学已发展成为一门被国际学者们充分重视的集人类学、语言学、心理学、传播学、社会学等为一体的综合性学科。今天的世界是一个全球化的时代，有越来越多的来自不同文化背景的人沟通，跨文化的沟通变得越来越重要。本文就跨文化交际过程中，对交际双方由于文化间的差异而造成交际障碍，导致交际失败的原因及一些有效的解决办法进行了探讨。
