The Effect of English-Learning on Invitation Culture

This paper investigates the effect of English-learning of our invitation culture. There were 30 subjects who took a questionnaire. And these 30 were separated into two kinds -- the ones who have learnt English for years and the ones who haven＇t learnt English at all. By the different answers of these two kinds of people, we can clearly see the changes caused by English learuing. And the paper analyzes the data of the finished questionnaires from the aspects of social distribution, social function, preannouncement, invitation strategies, and cultural orientation. I hope my paper can be of some help to communications among people from different cultures.
