An Empirical Study on Teaching Strategies of Chinese Classifiers under Multicultural Background

摘要

Based on the universalities of the world languages and the general cognitive characteristics of human beings, the paper explores the effective teaching strategies of Chinese classifiers. It proposes that put measure words as the teaching point of Chinese classifiers, takes the shape feature as the breakthrough and important parameter of classifiers' matching motivation, and adopts "source - prototype association" teaching strategy to the complex semantic classifiers. Experiments show that those strategies are effective teaching methods for foreign students to learn Chinese classifiers.
