非汉语母语者汉语单字调声调意识初期发展的实验研究

Initial Development of Chinese Monosyllabic Tone Awareness of Nonnative Chinese Speakers:a Case Study

本文以无声调非汉语母语者和有声调非汉语母语者为研究对象,以汉语母语者为参照。利用实验语音学的方法纵向考察了被试的汉语单字调产出,得出了四个结论:(1)无声调非汉语母语者和有声调非汉语母语者单字调各项声调意识的初期发展既有差异又有类似;(2)时间因素对声调意识的初期发展的影响是不平衡的;(3)各类声调的单字调声调意识的初期发展是不平衡的; (4)单字调各项声调特征意识的初期发展是不平衡的。根据以上结论,对不同母语背景的学习者最好能有针对性的声调教学方法。

Based on experimental phonetic technique,the monosyllabic tone production between a nonnative Chinese speaker with non-tone mother language and a nonnative speaker with tone mother language longitudinally was compared in this study.We got some interesting results:Ⅰ.Even though non-tone language nonnative speaker and tone language nonnative speaker have something in common,they still have their own developmental characters.Ⅱ.Time has unbalanced effect on initial development of tone awareness.Ⅲ.The initial development of four tones awareness is unbalanced.Ⅳ.the initial development of tone features awareness is unbalanced.
