How culture helps you in learning a new language?

7年前

We all know that language is a very important part in the society's cultural background.  The structure of a language might tell us the way in which speakers of that language see and interact with the world, also, the meanings of a language can represent the culture of a particular social group, and so on....

But for you, how culture is important during the process of learning a new language?  
What helps you in this process? Music, films, readings, history?!?!
