Considering there is no precedent studies about Sudanese students Chinese Speech Act, the article firstly gives some definitions of the it with the support of relevant theory, and then introduces some means of its expression. Finally it discusses the syntactic patterns and strategies made by Sudanese students on the basis of the collected corpus particularly, while interpreting and analyzing some social factors that may affect the realization in the Chinese suggestion.Some finds of the study show that, a clear distinction exists between Sudanese students and Chinese students on the suggestion expressions and strategies. With the improvement of Chinese level, the proportion of main sentences and strategies which used by Sudanese are becoming increasingly higher, and their language are also getting closer to Chinese students. When they are implementing the speech act of Chinese suggestion, only social power and degree of face threatening will affect the choice of strategies in the realization of the act. However, the other fact of social distance has no essential impact on the expression of suggestion. Based on the survey results.
