Experimental Study On The Acquisition Of Chinese Interrogative Intonation Of Thai Students

Based on the theory of intonation pattern,this paper mainly uses the method of acoustic experiment to measure some parameters such as the undulation、the lengthening ratio and the volume ratio of the corpus,then to find out the dynamic development features and errors of Thai students in different stages who acquire Chinese interrogative intonation and put forward the corresponding teaching strategies.This paper includes the following six parts:The first part is the introduction,which expounds the origin of the topic,the review of the intonation and the significance and purpose of the topic.The second part is experimental design.This part describes the experimental corpus、subjects of pronunciation and experimental process first,then explains three important parameters:undulation、lengthening ratio and volume ratio.The third part is the experimental analysis of the Thai students’interrogative sentences.This part analyzes the different manifestations between Chinese people and Thai students’ undulation、lengthening ratio and volume ratio from three levels.The fourth part summarizes the dynamic development characteristics of the interrogative sentences used by Thai students and analysis the causes of errors.The fifth part is to put forward some relevant suggestions of how to teach Chinese interrogative sentences to Thai students.The sixth part is the summary.The main conclusion of this paper is as follows:Thai students generally have the problems of the middle group range is too wide and the end group range is a little narrow in terms of pitch.On the length of sounds,they have improper pause positions,and they tend to lengthen verbs rather than the last word of every word group.On the intensity of sound,the average volume of each prosodic word is basically correct,but the volume ratio of single word in each prosodic word is biased.
