| Conditional sentences are not only very important language points but also very hard grammar points. No research has been done on the analysis of errors Kenyan students are likely to make when learning conditional complex sentences in Chinese.Even though Kenya is a country that has so many languages, the Kenyan government has made it a point for everyone to study Swahili and English hence the two languages and the most widely used languages for day to day life's activities. There are so many English and Chinese comparisons so this paper will mainly focus on the Swahili and Chinese comparison and error analysis of the complex conditional sentences.The first chapter therefore is an introduction which includes the background, aim of the research,the summery of the available literature and the method of research.The second chapter touches on the Kiswahili and Chinese conditional sentences separately. It then goes deep to look at the differences in the Swahili and Chinese language complex conditional sentences.The third chapter delves into the questionnaires used in research. The statistics in the research and discusses the different sections of the research (meaning, grammar and usage) . It then goes on to summarize all the findings and give reasons for the errors that are likely to made.The fourth chapter delves in the education and teaching of the conditional sentence, its importance in the educational system of the Kiswahili speaking countries and how it will help other teachers and students as a whole. It also shows how to deal with situation,the problems and mistakes realized.It is pointed out that the international education of Chinese language has developed rapidly in Africa in recent ten years. Swahili language is widely used in Kenya and throughout Africa, so hopefully this article will be of great help to the Chinese learners of Swahili language background and act as a point of reference the teachers of Chinese language in Africa. |
