Authors : Ghiboub Abdelhak .

Abstract

This research tries to investigate the link between cultural constraints and the difficulties faced by EFL users when speaking. The main objectives are: first, to find a theoretical grounding with which the link of the socio-cultural environment to language can be explained and second, to find an effective method of investigation that proves the existence of a socio-cultural influence on EFL users rendering and specially speaking. Finally, the research will show that the four socio-cultural dimensions (environment, language, gender and age) have an important effect on EFL learners' oral-expressive rendering (speaking).
