The Chinese Language Intonation Errors Of Russian-native-speaker Oversea Students During Their Elementary Stage Of Study&the Corresponding Solutions

As the old saying goes, interpersonal language communication originates from one’s month while ends in others’ears. Although speakers are not able to pronounce every syllable correctly and handle all the tones completely standard, listeners can still comprehend them through analysis, memory and comparison.At present, people have already got a much deeper understanding of the characteristics of teaching Chinese as a second language and agree that Chinese teaching not only demands teachers to handle basic Chinese language knowledge comprehensively, but also values those theories and skills of teaching Chinese as a second language, especially how to utilize teaching theories to lead their teaching activities in practice. For all languages, pronunciation together with intonation plays an important part. Interpersonal language communication begins with pronunciation as if infants would make some nonstandard and strange sounds when they learn to express themselves after adults. Therefore the aim of teaching Chinese as a second language is to teach Chinese Language learners the frame and system of pronunciation and intonation.As a Russian native speaker, I have over15years of experience of using Chinese language and culture. Through my own experience and what I got during interpersonal exchange, Ⅰ realize that a great number of foreigners are still suffering from some problems with their pronunciation not only during the primary stage, but also during the intermediate stage and even senior one. For Russian-native-speaker oversea students, Chinese pronunciation is the biggest headache for them since Russian is a kind of language without intonation, which puts much pressure on Russian native speakers during their first contact with Chinese language. How shall we help the Chinese language learners to overcome those difficulties and what measures shall we take to reduce and solve their pronunciation problems? I think we can get the answers from those pronunciation deviations as well as their reasons. Moreover, we need develop corresponding teaching methods. Therefore, my thesis title isThe Pronunciation Deviation of Russian-native-speaker Oversea Students during Their Elementary Stage of Chinese Language Study&The Corresponding SolutionsBased on my13years of Russian language teaching experience, the practice of teaching Russian-native-speaker oversea students Chinese language, the comparison between Chinese and Russian teaching, and the theories of deviation analysis together with my own Chinese study experience I provide some suggestions about Chinese intonation teaching.In this thesis, I analyzed the pronunciation and intonation recording during their elementary stage of Chinese language study through "Gold Wave" software and "Praat" software. And I also researched the difficulties of their Chinese pronunciation as well as the internal laws through deviation analysis. Moreover, I classified their Chinese language pronunciation deviation and make corresponding solutions, which is of great help to their Chinese language study.This thesis consists of five chapters:The first chapter is general introduction and it introduces the aim, good effects, the summaries of relevant documents and the research methods of thesis, content and target Chinese Language learners.Chapter two is the most important part of my thesis which states the experiment aim of this thesis and its content as well as relevant results.Chapter three analyzes the Chinese language intonation deviations and their reasons.Based on the research results and the conclusion of intonation deviations, Chapter four presents my methods of teaching Russian-native-speaker oversea students Chinese language during the elementary stage.Chapter five makes the conclusion of this paper and presents the innovation as well as some shortcomings.I hope my thesis and viewpoints could won more feedback from Chinese teaching field and really expect my suggestions could be utilized by Chinese Language teacher of Russian oversea students to solve some teaching problems and those Russian native speakers could win great progress in their Chinese study!...
