Language is the substance which creates the bridge to interconnect two different worlds. And while stepping up on this bridge we need an element that helps open the shields of target world. Second language is certainly the element we need. In the not too distant past, second language teaching was synonymous with teaching grammar, describing structures, repeating sentences deprived of meaning, memorizing endless lists of vocabulary and rules. These procedures reflect an association stimulus-response approach to language teaching, in which language is considered a rigid set of vocabulary and structures, artificially put together, and in which the mind takes no part. We went deep inside the grammar of the language let's turn to a real life and see how the language is implemented in our lives.

Our world is globalizing and the population also stepping - up time by time. As a result of globalization and rapid advances in information and communication technology (ICT), there has been a change in priorities towards English. Although English remains as the second language, it is becoming more significant as it is the language used in science and technology. The education system is responding towards the requirements of time as English is the important vehicle to opening doors of knowledge in science and technology. The need for communicative skills in English has been increasing, both for business and in private life.

Raz - demonstrates that role play is the most effective method in foreign language education, because it has beneficial effects on the learner's communicative competence and motivation. At the same time, the necessity of learner-centered education in language classes has been proclaimed [1. p. 88].

Oyabu - asserts that the activity of drama is suitable for making an environment in which students do not remain silent but rather can naturally speak in and listen to the target language [1. p. 72].

Everybody is making too many efforts in order to learn English. Most of them are using a bright method of accomplishing this task in contrast to the rest who are busy with doing something irregular that lets them stay behind the schedule. One of the most illustrative and effective way doing the above mentioned mission is role play. Yet sounds a little awkward, but actually it's not, it's just extremely defeated by the people who never use this method. We did not entitle this article in that way, we did it deliberately. Our beloved writer W. Shakespeare once said "The world is theatre and all people are the actors and actresses". Of course he is right. We all play some kind of roles in our lifetime. Different period of our life involves various characters and during the on going process of our growth we play them consciously. For example as a child we play the role of kids for a particular amount of time being a king, then the kings' advisors, then the servants and etc. But we never really accept this as a role play. By that time we spent for growing up we learn, we got experience and the thing that we got become our backgrounds. So here learning procedure plays very important role. It means by playing a role play we simply learn a lifelong experience. Just like this when we play it we feel as if we are the actors of that play or drama (topic) and the rest of us (group mates) will get pleasure by watching the scene played by the actors. It is very close communication with the people outside of your world. Somehow, you could deliver your message to your partner. Every time when it comes to learn

something new related to English or foreign language push yourself into role play i.e. you will learn it better, by the way you manage to reinforce your knowledge taken during the course.

Keywords: linguo-countrystudy, country study, approach to learning, discipline, language unit, foreign language, vocabulary.

The progressive development of international contacts and ties in politics, economy, culture and other fields determines the consistent orientation of modern methods of teaching foreign languages to the real conditions of communication. The desire for communicative competence, as the final result of training, implies not only the possession of appropriate foreign language equipment (i.e. the language competence of students), but also the assimilation of colossal non-linguistic information necessary for adequate learning and mutual understanding, because the latter is unattainable without the relative equality of the basic Information about the surrounding reality. A noticeable difference in the stock of this information among speakers of different languages is mainly determined by the different material and spiritual conditions of existence of the respective peoples and countries, the peculiarities of their history, culture, social and political system, political system, etc. Thus, it became generally accepted that there is a need to deeply understand the specificity of the country of the language being studied, and thus the need for a country studies approach as one of the main principles of teaching foreign languages [1, p. 18].

So what is this - country study and linguistics? Acquaintance with the culture of the country of the studied language was one of the main tasks since antiquity. Teaching of classical languages, as an interpretation of religious texts, is not conceivable without cultural commenting. In the teaching of living languages from the end of the fourteenth century, along with oral speech, the acquaintance with the realities of the country of the language being studied is put on the first place. This was especially characteristic of the German linguistic and didactic school. Different information about a particular state taught in the process of teaching the language is commonly called country studies, in Germany -cultural studies (kulturkunde), in American educational institutions there are language and territory courses, in the French Methodical School. There is the notion of "language and civilization" (langue et civilisation). English colleagues use the theory of "linguocultural studies". The interim state educational standard among the objectives of teaching foreign languages at a basic level includes the
