Abstract
Owing to the recent developments in ICT technologies and easy travelling facilities, more and more
people quite likely to communicate with others who have quite different cultural backgrounds for many
reasons. Citizens of Kazakhstan also travel broad for educational, touristic, academic, health or business
purposes. Except for the citizens of the former Soviet (USSR) Republics, the English Language is a means
of communication, while they are travelling abroad. Does their knowledge of English help them survive
and rather succeed in their interactions in intercultural situations? What sort of situations tend to include
risks of communication failure?
