Research On Enumeration Words And Expressions For Teaching Chinese As A Foreign Language

Based on the corpus of international students’ real corpus in written corpus and HSK dynamic composition corpus of Jinan University,many research methods are used in the study,such as literature analysis,corpus research,comparative analysis,qualitative analysis and so on.Statistical investigation and analysis are made in this thesis to study the words that international students enumerate regularly.The thesis is divided into four parts.First of all,Firstly,the research object of this paper is determined and analyzed.Through the prescriptions towards enumerated words in Chinese teaching syllabus including The International Chinese General Syllabus and Chinese Proficiency Vocabulary and Grade Outline of Chinese Characters,determines ten enumerated words:Xiang,Liru,Deng,Ru,Biru,Shenmede,Bifang,Piru,Zhilei and Zhurucilei;According to communication needs,enumerated words are divided into written ones and oral ones,and the analysis of its grammatical characteristics is done from three aspects syntax,semantics and pragmatics.Secondly,the teaching materials,new words collection,teaching practice and the application of foreign students are investigated in this thesis.In the aspect of textbooks,the highest rate of new words is “such as”,enumerated words are explained a lot in elementary and intermediate textbooks;In the aspect of classroom teaching,the author has conducted interviews by interviewing teachers of Chinese as a foreign language who have much teaching experience for many years,and has learned that these two words “such as” and“like” are often explained in classroom teaching,and the degree of syllabus is extremely difficult.High-level enumerated words are prescribed a lot.In the aspect of and the application of foreign students,it is found that the using frequency of monosyllabic enumerated words is high,for example,“Ru” and “Xiang”,and that of disyllabic enumerated words is higher,for example “Biru”,while the words such as “Piru”,“Zhurucilei” are in a low frequency.The international students also misuses “Shenmede”to“Shenme”,as well as the word “Bifang”are in problems.Finally,viewing the actual problems during investigation,the author puts forward some suggestions.As to the compilation of teaching materials,it is suggested that textbook writers should increase the proportion of enumerated words in the list of new words,make clear the differences of linguistic genre between written and oral language,and refer to the using habits of Chinese native speakers when compiling enumerated words in textbooks.In the meanwhile,in the aspect of classroom teaching,it is suggested that the Chineseteachers should input this language appropriately when teaching Chinese as a foreign language,by following the cognitive order of enumerating words which can be learned by foreign students.At the same time,the way of contrasting teaching should also be adopted.Students can really understand their differences,and master the correct usage of these enumerated words.
