Problems Encountered by Chinese People in Japanese Learning and Teaching Strategies

摘要

Beginners may mistakenly think Japanese is easy to learn when they see Chinese characters in it. It is true that many Chinese characters in Japanese have the same or similar meaning with the characters in the Chinese language, but some of them mean something different. It is these similarities and differences that are more likely to mislead learners and lead to errors and deviations in their use. This paper discusses the problems that Chinese people often encounter in Japanese learning and the ways to solve them from the aspects of grammar, character and culture.
