Dialogue, based on Yuri (Juri) Lotman’s perspective, is an ontological characteristic of the semiosphere and the basis for semiosis in cultural semiotics; however, for Mikhail Bakhtin, it is a feature of language and communication. The notion of dialogue is fundamental to both of them. The current study attempts to explore the similarities and differences between Lotman’s and Bakhtin’s dialogues and has pedagogical implications for foreign language education. According to our findings, ‘I–She/he’ and ‘I–I’ communication channels exist both in Lotman’s and Bakhtin’s dialogues, and their dialogues are in the semiosphere. Bakhtin’s dialogue focuses on language, context, time, monologue, polyphony, heteroglossia, external mechanism, and humans, but Lotman’s dialogue centers on culture, text, space, multilingualism, internal mechanism, humans, and non-humans. Finally, this paper provides references for linguists in foreign language education and semioticians, and it is aimed to benefit college students taking foreign language education
