A Comparative Analysis of Chinese and Thai Grammar and Teaching Strategies
Keywords:
Chinese and Thai grammar, Comparative analysis, Thai students, teaching strategiesAbstract
Thai and Chinese belong to the Sino-Tibetan language family; there are same, similarities and differences between them. From the perspective of linguistic typology, they are all isolated words, and they use the word order of SVO, which is the word order of "subject-predicate-object". Both use word order and function words as important means to express grammatical meaning. Understanding the similarities and the differences between them will help Thai students to reduce the interference of their mother tongue in Chinese grammar learning and avoid errors caused by the negative transfer of mother tongue.
This article based on the review of previous research results on Chinese and Thai grammar, summarizes the similarities and differences in the grammatical structure of the two languages, and proposes some specific teaching strategies for Thai students in the process of Chinese grammar learning in order to reduce Thai students’ grammatical errors.
