A Study On Chinese Prestige Of Learners In Confucius Institute Of South Korea From The Perspective Of Prestige Planning

With the steady improvement of China's global status in the fields of politics,economy,science,technology and culture,the status of Chinese,as a primary language of international communication of China,also needs to be improved.We should continue to build Confucius Institute and Confucius Classroom,help overseas Chinese schools to accelerate their development,give full play to their role as bridges,and expand the use of Chinese in international organizations and the international community.Confucius Institute is not only the place to teach Chinese and spread Chinese culture,but also the place of Chinese international promotion.This paper takes Chinese learners of Confucius Institute,Chinese learners of other institutions and ordinary people in South Korea as the research objects,and takes language attitude theory as the theoretical basis.Through the methods of questionnaire and interview,it is determined whether Confucius Institute in South Korea has played a role in improving the Chinese reputation of Korean learners.The conclusions are as follows: compared with ordinary people in South Korea,we can think that through the study in Confucius Institute,students' attitude towards Chinese language has been significantly improved.However,compared with other institutions,Confucius Institute did not form a significant difference in enhancing the prestige of Chinese of Korean learners.At the same time,this paper also finds that there are several factors that affect the prestige of Chinese of Korean Learners:(1)Chinese learning itself will improve students' language attitude towards Chinese;(2)Language evaluation is influenced by cultural evaluation,that is,the language corresponding to the culture with high evaluation will also get high language evaluation,so it will make the overall language attitude higher.(3)Learning motivation,the usefulness and necessity of Chinese language,and the sense of achievement of learners are the most important factors that affect learners' attitude towards Chinese language,which directly reflects the prestige ofChinese language.(4)The stronger the language ability,the higher the frequency of language use,and the more positive the language tendency,the higher the language attitude.Therefore,this paper puts forward five suggestions to improve the function of Confucius Institute while enhancing the international reputation of Chinese.
