The study attempted to investigate the foreign and Arabic cultural aspects in the textbook “English for Iraq” for the 5th and 6th preparatory classes in Iraq.
To achieve the purpose of the study, the researcher adopted textbook analysis as she selected a sample that consisted of six books: the student’s book, the teacher’s book and the activity book for the 5th and 6th preparatory classes.
The researcher analyzed cultural aspects in these textbooks in terms of names, pictures, addressing people, women, celebrations and social events, in addition to general situations.
These cultural aspects were categorized into three main categories; Arabic cultural aspects, foreign cultural aspects and intercultural aspects ( common in both cultures).The instruments of the study were a checklist and openended interviews .
Moreover, a purposive sample of 12 respondents, covering different age ranges, gender and cultural backgrounds was chosen to achieve the objectives of the study.
The sample consisted of 4 supervisors and 8 teachers of English who took part in the open-ended interviews.
Results showed that most of cultural content in the English textbooks is not sufficient and does not address the amount of culture required for identifying both Arabic and foreign cultures.
Moreover, results proved that despite the existence of several important cultural aspects, it is a must to pay more attention to those cultural elements.
Finally, The teachers also assumed that the English culture is dominating the Arabic Iraqi culture, and there must be a balance between the two cultures because the students need to express their own culture in English.
The researcher recommended that further research on the cultural aspects embedded in EFL textbooks in Iraq be conducted.
