Keywords:
authentic materials, communicative competence, English language teaching, EFL methodology, pragmatic competence, sociolinguistic competence.Abstract
The present article examines the theoretical foundations and practical implications of employing authentic materials in English language teaching and their influence on the development of communicative competence among learners. The analysis demonstrates that authentic materials, when purposefully selected and methodologically integrated, significantly enhance learners' lexical breadth, pragmatic awareness, sociolinguistic sensitivity, and productive language use.
