A Study on Chinglish in College English Scientific Journals of China

摘要

Owing to the influences of Chinese thinking pattern and expressing conventions, Chinglish can widely be found in the college English scientific journals in China and greatly hinders Chinese scholars from showing the domestic scientific and technological achievements and engaging in international academic exchanges. Through constructing a mini corpus data of English theses and retrieval software, this paper analyzes the features of Chinglish at lexical and syntactical levels and thus advances suggestions on eliminating Chinglish from the perspective of English competence, editing and contribution.
