Abstract | Word Analysis is an approach to teach second language (L2) students about cultural perspectives which are understood collectively as the ideas, values, beliefs, and experiences many native speakers have regarding cultural domains within their own cultures. Word Analysis is anchored on the relationships between language and communication, and language and culture. The present study researches the history behind the dual value of the term "la madre" [mother] in Mexican Spanish to deliver a practical method that language instructors easily could easily incorporate within their materials to teach L2 culture, or that publishers could integrate within their textbooks. The primary purpose and goal of Word Analysis is to improve cultural awareness, sensitivity, and overall competence among learners. Therefore, the benefits of L2 learning as described by the "Comparisons" and "Communities" standards are supported via the content students learn by studying cultural perspectives (National Standards Collaborative Board, 2015).
