国际中文语调教学当有内容之我见

On the Content of International Chinese Intonation Teaching

长期以来,汉语语调教学理论上无所依傍,但这样的局面如今已发生改变。本文对自赵元任先生以来的汉语语调研究做了三个阶段的简要回顾,并认可林茂灿提出的“双要素/三事件”框架。随后笔者基于多年的研究心得和汉语教学实践经验,主张声调结合语调进行教学与训练,并提出了建议性的汉语语调教学内容及安排,包括单字语调、变调连调、调核单元、标记词语等。

For a long time,the teaching of Chinese intonation lacked theoretical basis,but now the situation has changed.This paper makes a brief review of three stages of Chinese intonation research since Mr.Zhao Yuanren,and endorses the“two elements/three events”model proposed by Lin Maocan.Then,based on years’research experience and practical experience in Chinese L2 teaching,the author argues that the intonation should be learned and practised with tones,and proposes suggestions for the content and arrangement of Chinese intonation teaching,including intonation of monosyllabic sentences,tone sandhi,nucleus units,marked words,and so on.
