summary This study concerns not only the Sémtique des Possible Argentatives, but also the teaching of foreign languages, as it sets up an experimental protocol that incorporates a semantic approach to the analysis of the report to knowledge. The latter seeks to understand the teaching practices of Colombian FLE teachers and the strong tendency to limit culture education to the presentation of folklorising characteristics and stereotypical images of others. In order to achieve this, we considered it appropriate to understand, first of all, the linguistic representation that teachers have of each of the key concepts in this field, namely civilisation, culture and intercultural, and the identity construction they convey in the classroom. The experimental protocol also makes it possible to analyse the singularity of teaching practice. This approach is more understandable to teaching activities, but also highlights the obstacles caused by the lack of training in methodology and teaching of foreign languages.
