Abstract
This article explores the pedagogical potential of digital communication in the process of learning foreign languages. It examines how digital platforms, online interaction, and multimedia technologies reshape the linguistic, cultural, and cognitive dimensions of language education. The paper highlights how digital communication fosters authentic learning environments, enhances intercultural competence, and supports learner autonomy. The study concludes that the integration of digital communication into language pedagogy not only expands methodological possibilities but also transforms the learner into an active participant in a global linguistic community.
