“If I only translate the words, listeners may miss why they matter,” says Nils, a teenager from Sápmi, during the planning of a youth podcast. His group will interview young people from different Arctic communities about clothing, music and family stories. English will connect guests from several countries, but each speaker may keep words from their own language. Before recording, the group asks contributors how they want those words pronounced and explained. Instead of replacing every term with an English equivalent, the podcast includes short explanations recorded by the guests themselves. One volunteer suggests removing unfamiliar words to make the episodes sound more international. Nils disagrees, arguing that the audience can learn without turning each story into the same kind of story.

Analyze the podcast team’s choices and identify the principle that best guides their use of English in intercultural communication.

“Why don’t you replace the Yoruba words with English?” asked a listener after Tunde presented his podcast at an international youth media festival. Tunde, who lives in Lagos, explained that he uses English to introduce stories about his neighborhood to people from different countries. In one episode, he keeps words such as “?ba” and “à?à” and adds short explanations in English instead of direct translations. After the presentation, participants from India, Canada, and Brazil shared words from their own languages that also carried meanings difficult to translate. Tunde later said that the discussion mattered because listeners did not need to know Yoruba before joining it, but they could still notice where the stories came from.

Interpret Tunde’s language choice in the podcast. What does it show about English in intercultural communication?

I first noticed that the English version of our community map was changing the conversation. I am a Brazilian student who uploads information about places near my neighborhood. When I described a former quilombo settlement, I kept its original name and added a short explanation in English. A volunteer from Kenya replied that her community also uses local names linked to resistance and memory. Other contributors then shared places from their own regions. In the group chat, no one was asked to write like a native speaker. The useful posts were those that made local experiences understandable to people abroad while respecting the words that communities use for themselves.

Evaluate the actions below. Which one best continues the communication practice described in the text?

Leaves rustled on the sidewalk outside the community center as twilight fell on an October evening. Inside, families gathered around tables piled with small gourds carved into glowing, grinning faces. Excited whispers filled the air as children practiced saying 'trick-or-treat!' before approaching decorated doors. Volunteers in costume guided them from room to room. Instead of store-bought sweets, each child received brigadeiros wrapped in dark paper stamped with bat motifs. On the walls, hand-painted signs proclaimed 'Happy Halloween' beside spider illustrations. Laughter and surprise mingled as neighbors, some unfamiliar with the celebration, participated in the exchange of treats and greetings. The event blended elements of an English-speaking festival with local customs and flavors.

Analise the passage and identify which combination of details best demonstrates the cultural adaptation of the Halloween tradition in the Brazilian context.

Em uma roda de conversa, uma adolescente conta que aprendeu inglês com músicas, séries e jogos on-line. Ela afirma que, ao usar o idioma, passou a conhecer costumes de outros países e também a falar mais sobre os hábitos da própria comunidade.

— A situação evidencia que o uso do inglês pode influenciar a identidade cultural de um jovem de que maneira?

At a community festival in a Brazilian neighborhood, residents presented different ways of preserving their local memory. A group of rappers performed verses about the streets and their daily experiences. Painters created a colorful graffiti mural showing celebrations from the past. Dancers used gestures and body movements to represent important moments in the neighborhood’s history. Finally, a spoken-word poet recited a poem about the community’s hopes for the future.

Com base no texto, qual apresentação exemplifica o uso da linguagem corporal para comunicar uma narrativa social?

A small regional museum recently recruited local youth as tour guides. One guide vividly narrates how early settlers built the limestone dam, mimicking the motion of lifting heavy stones to demonstrate the labor involved. At other points, she uses open-palm gestures to invite questions, adjusts her intonation to highlight dramatic moments and alternates between formal history language and colloquial expressions to connect with diverse visitors.

Analyze the guide’s communication techniques described in the text and identify which one exemplifies the combined use of verbal narration and bodily movement.

"How does a city speak through art?" The collective Rising Voices answered by transforming an abandoned warehouse wall into a living stage. Over two weeks, muralists painted vibrant imagery depicting local legends, while dancers moved across the bricks, tracing the patterns with flowing gestures. At night, storytellers recited neighborhood memories into microphones, their voices echoing alongside projected visuals. Passersby paused, their eyes drawn to both color and movement as spoken narratives gave context to each painted scene. The project concluded with a public gathering where all elements—painting, dance, and speech—merged in a single performance, inviting residents to witness how multiple expressions can unite to celebrate their shared heritage.

Analise the text and identify how the performance integrates artistic, bodily, and verbal languages to reinforce community identity?
