The Characters Of The Split Words And The Split Words Teaching In TCFL

The Split Words are kind of special ones in Chinese vocabularies and theirspecial nature------sometimes they can combine into one word and sometimes also canseparate into two words when they are used in our daily life, which makes thembelong to two categories------"The Vocabulary Teaching" and "The GrammarTeaching".However, at present, in the Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language (TCFL), the Split Words haven't been attached much more importance. Their characters mostly are treated in the understatement or even neglected by the existing teaching outlines and all kinds of teaching materials about TCFL, and what is more, the explanations and the excises on the Split Words during the class are still not enough as what they ask for. As a result, they become a weak link in the TCFL.The paper uses the exiting achievements concerning the research and the teaching of the Split Words for reference, taking the foreign students as the investigated objects, applying the relevant linguistic theories,the teaching and learning theories, at the same time adopting the methods of Measurement of Linguistics, basing on the statistics and analysis of 178 Split Words and then make an investigation towards the foreign students who are respectively in primary, intermediate and advanced classes, inspecting the types of the errs they make and reasons why they do, inquiring the main reasons why "the teachers feel hard to teach and the students feel hard to learn" in the Split Words teaching, accordingly put forward the relevant countermeasures in order to improve the teaching of the Split Words, which is aiming at providing some theoretical and realistic basis to the Split Words Teaching in TCFL.
