ENHANCING PLURILINGUAL COMPETENCE IN LANGUAGE LEARNING: BASED ON METALINGUISTIC SKILLS, TRANSVERSAL COMPETENCIES, AND CULTURAL CONTEXT

Аннотация

In an increasingly globalized world, the ability to use multiple languages effectively and appropriately across various contexts is essential. This article explores the development of plurilingual competence through three interconnected dimensions: metalinguistic awareness, transversal competencies, and sensitivity to cultural context. Drawing upon the CEFR framework and relevant linguistic theories, the paper emphasizes that plurilingual competence involves more than language proficiency—it requires strategic thinking, cross-cultural understanding, and the ability to integrate language knowledge dynamically. The paper proposes pedagogical approaches for fostering these skills among language learners, particularly in higher education.
