A Study On Perception And Production In Second Language Tone Acquisitio

Languages in the world can be divided into tonal languages and non-tonal languages.Tonal languages with zigzag changes and strong musicality like Chinese are relatively rare.It is always difficult for Chinese learners to learn tones,such as the upper tone and the combination of tones.therefore,tone learning is also the key and difficult point in second language acquisition for communication purposes.This paper hopes to understand the situation of tone perception and output of Japanese Chinese learners and analyze the relationship between the two,so as to put forward more targeted tone teaching suggestions for Japanese Chinese learners.This paper focuses on the relationship between the perception and output of Chinese tones acquired by Japanese Chinese learners.In order to understand the situation of Tone acquisition by Japanese Chinese learners,this paper takes singlecharacter tone and double-character tone as experimental materials,and takes Chinese learners of different levels as experimental objects,and collects relevant data of Chinese tone acquisition by Chinese learners from two aspects of tone perception and tone production.In the part of tone perception test,the order of perception acquisition is quantified from perception accuracy and complexity of perception error types according to learners’ auditory perception results.From the perspective of statistical experiment,the paper analyzes whether there are significant differences in perceptual ability of learners of different levels in acquiring different tones.In the part of acoustic experiment,the tone output of Chinese learners in monosyllabic tone and two-syllabic tone is analyzed by comparing the tone pattern and tone value of Chinese native speakers.Then,the paper obtains the difficulty level of learner’s tone perception acquisition from the correct rate of tone perception and the complexity of tone error type,and obtains the difficulty level of learner’s tone output acquisition based on the analysis of tone value tone type of learner’s tone output.According to the difficulty level of tone perception and tone production,the difficulty level of single character and double character combination is finally obtained for Chinese learners of different levels.On the whole,the tone combination of yangping tone for single character and the tone combination of the foreword tone for double character are the difficulties for Chinese learners’ perception and output acquisition.But the acquisition of Yang ping and upper tone is different in the order of perception and output.In addition,from a diachronic perspective,through statistical experiments on perceptual data and observation on output data,it can be found that there are significant differences in tone acquisition among elementary,intermediate and advanced Chinese learners.According to the order of perception and output acquisition difficulty summarized above,this paper puts forward some teaching suggestions for Japanese Chinese learners to acquire Chinese tones.It includes three parts: arranging order reasonably,paying attention to tone perception training.
