Source document Radomskie studia Filologiczne. Vol. 5, no. 1 (2017), pp. 105-118. - Poland : Kazimierz Pułaski University of Technology and Humanities in Radom, 2017 Keywords cultural compatibility jazyk - language behavior Language Slovak Country Poland systematics 316.722 Annotation The article deals with the most up-to-date topic – cultural differences between “western” cultures and cultures of immigrants coming from Islamic Eastern countries. Attention is paid to “visible differences” in everyday life, social rules, way of communication and language represented in English-written literature (novels by Betty Mahmoody and Khaled Hosseini). We compare seemingly incompatible cultures in connection to behaviour and attitudes of people from different cultures (Muslim, American and Slovak). This article also provides interesting facts about selected Muslim countries (Iran and Afghanistan) and serves as a guide to understand different cultures, specific vocabulary, terminology and phraseological units that lead to successful intercultural communication Public work category ADE No. of Archival Copy 39664 Catal.org.
