| description |
This article examines the usage of the prefixes mono-, multi-, pluri-, inter-, and trans-(cultural) in two Council of Europe language policy documents, the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR, 2001) and its Companion Volume (2020). It focuses on their evolution and implications in language teaching and cultural understanding, particularly translating these concepts into Russian to illustrate their application in Slavic language education. The article highlights a shift from monolingual frameworks towards embracing multilingualism and plurilingual competences, reflecting a broader societal move towards recognising and integrating linguistic and cultural diversity. The article also addresses the limited but emerging engagement with transcultural perspectives, suggesting areas for further development in European language policies.
