Images that we can make about languages, cultures, and speakers result from a construction process between different historical, social, and cultural circumstances. The images are constructed individually, and then they become part of social imagination. These ideas are circulated in society in many different ways; they influence individuals’ behaviors when they communicate with other speakers. In this paper, we are interested in language, culture, and speakers’ images: historical images and imaginary hierarchies are exposed. This is part of a qualitative investigation done within two Ph.D. theses. We conducted interviews with young Mexican teachers to talk about their experiences in learning foreign languages and their thoughts about the languages they speak.
