摘　　要：语言是一种交际工具,但它并不是独立存在的,它与文化是密不可分的。它深深地植根于各民族的文化中,是文化的一部分,对文化起着重要作用。它既受文化的影响和制约,又反映文化。因此谁要想掌握一门外国语言,必须先了解这个民族的文化。基于语言与文化的关系,从英语和汉语的词汇、句法及语用三个方面对中西方文化中的语言习惯差异进行比较分析,可以帮助学习者更好地进行语言学习。Language is a tool of intercommunication. It can not exist by itself. It deeply roots in national culture and it is a complete part of national culture. Language does not only affect culture but also reflects culture.

On the basis of the relationship between language and culture, and in order to help learners to learn a foreign langu.age more effec-tively, this paper carries out an analysis on the different language usages in western and domestic culture through the illustration from three aspects, i.e. , vocabulary, syntax and language using in English and Chinese.
