A common question is how language impacts cultural identity in the UK and it is important to know that language has a significant role in shaping the cultural identity of the UK as a whole.
Language can reflect the heritage and history of a variety of communities in the UK and it also ensures that the key values of these communities can also be shared.
Not only this, but language is a way for cultures to take pride in who they are and what they bring to the UK (and the wider world of course) it also allows people to connect. They can form bonds and create a true sense of community too. Especially important if they have moved to the UK and away from their family, their friends and their familiarity.
