Study On The Semi-Affixes Denoting Person For Teaching Chinese As A Second Language

Semi-affixes in Chinese are relatively non-morphemes whose semantics are partially blurred,semantics are cohesive and generic,and word-formation has localization and productivity.Semi-affixes denoting person are the result of classifying semi-affixes according to it’s semantic content,and they are the product of the continuous development and change of the language.Therefore,there are different opinions on their definition standards,specific numbers and basic characteristics.It’s necessary for us to accurately define the semi-affixes denoting person,clarify the specific number and analyze the basic characteristics to guide the teaching of TCSL,to improve the vocabulary acquisition and application ability of non-native Chinese learners.This thesis takes Chinese semi-affixes denoting person as the main research object,combines literatures,dictionaries,international Chinese textbooks and non-native Chinese learners’ error corpus to conduct theoretical research and applied research on TCSL of semi-affixes denoting person.There are seven chapters in this thesis:The first chapter is an introduction.The author expounded the reasons,significance and the research ideas of this thesis,sorts out the research on Chinese semi-affixes denoting person and the research on the current situation of TCSL,expounds the scope of corpus collection and the classification standards.The second chapter is the definition and classification of semi-affixes denoting person.After discussing the nature and characteristics of Chinese affixes and semi-affixes,the definition standards are put forward on the base of the characteristics of semi-affixes denoting person,then the number of semi-affixes denoting person is determined,and the semi-affixes denoting person are classified from three perspectives of word formation ability,semantic orientation and emotional color.The third chapter is the characteristics of semi-affixes denoting person.After analyzing the semantics and functions of semi-affixes denoting person,the author concluded that its word formation has the characteristics of positioning,productivity and analogy,and its semantics has the characteristics of virtualization,generalization and generalization,and pragmatically it has the characteristics of metaphor,simplification,etc.The fourth chapter is the discussion of the current situation of TCSL of semi-affixes denoting person.We select two sets of comprehensive international Chinese textbooks Boya Chinese and HSK Standard Course,combined with Chinese Proficiency Standards for International Chinese Education,to investigate the collection of semi-affixes denoting person,and then use the global Chinese interlanguage corpus to classify the errors made by non-native Chinese learners when they use semi-affixes denoting person to form words and analyze the reasons of the errors.The fifth chapter is the recommendations for international Chinese teaching of semiaffixes denoting person.Some suggestions are put forward for the compilation of textbooks,teachers’ teaching methods and students’ learning on the basis of the last chapter.The sixth chapter is the teaching design of semi-affixes denoting person.Considering the frequency of wrong words and Chinese grades of non-native Chinese learners,the author made the instructional design of elementary semi-affixes denoting person "sheng","jia","ke" and "yuan".The last chapter is the conclusion.Summarize the main research content and point out the deficiencies of the thesis.
