The Perceptual Similarity of Chinese and Japanese Pronunciation on 2-Kanji Vocabulary: From the Perspective of Native Chinese Speakers Learning Japanese

摘要

In this study, the objective is to investigate and analyze the perceptual similarity of Chinese and Japanese pronunciation on 2-kanji vocabulary among the Japanese learners who are native speakers of Chinese. Specifically, utilizing the 7 point Lickert scale, respondents judged the similarity of 100 common 2-Kanji vocabularies, which were pre-recorded and selected from the old-version Level 1 and Level 2 of the Japanese-Language proficiency test. All the results were summarized and analyzed.
