Résumé
This study explores what the cultural intelligence is what its components are. It aims at exploring the relationship between language learning and cultural intelligence. To achieve the aim, the bilingual and multilingual primary schoolers were selected and administered the cultural intelligence questionnaire to detect whether there is a relationship between these two or not. The data results yield the fact that multilinguals have higher scores in the cultural intelligence showcasing that those who are open to the other cultures, who can easily adapt themsleves to the new patterns of thinking are likely to learn languages with ease.
