The concept of ‘fidelity’ in cross-linguistic perspective: A comparative study between Arabic and American cultures

Author(s):

Kochetova Larisa Anatolyevna and Al-Misfer Mohammed Mustafa M

Abstract:

This study explores the cultural construction and interpretation of fidelity in Arabic and American societies through a comparative lens. Drawing upon linguistic definitions, religious discourse, and cultural theory, the research investigates how fidelity is defined, perceived, and practiced within each context. Using qualitative methods and theoretical frameworks such as Hofstede’s cultural dimensions and Hall’s context theory, the study identifies key cultural contrasts in values, communication styles, gender expectations, and generational shifts. Findings reveal that while fidelity is a shared moral ideal, its meanings and social implications are profoundly shaped by religious traditions, social norms, and collective versus individualistic cultural orientations. The research offers valuable insights for understanding intercultural relationships and advancing dialogue on moral values in a globalized world.
