First of all, the questions raised
Now, more and more people around us are beginning to learn English. English has become an important subject. It can be said that the current international language has become English. And can our mother tongue, Chinese, go global?
Second, the survey method:
1, go to the library to consult relevant materials.
2. Get relevant information on the Internet.
Third, investigation and data collation.
1, the number of people who use English and Chinese.
At present, about 400 million people in the world speak English as their mother tongue.
At present, the number of Chinese speakers in the world is about 65.438+0.3 billion.
2. Spelling and pronunciation in English and Chinese.
English spelling and pronunciation are irregular and confusing. There are dozens of ways to pronounce English.
In Chinese, tenses, verbs and adjectives have not changed, and there is no continuous reading. The language is concise, the pronunciation is clear and the speech speed is slow.
3. Difficulties in learning English and Chinese.
Modern English eliminates the complex changes of nouns and adjectives. So the first feature of English is its simple structure, so it is easier to understand and learn.
Although Chinese grammar is not difficult to learn, Chinese characters are relatively difficult to learn. There are many characters with similar shapes and sounds in Chinese characters, and each Chinese character can have many definitions, as well as polyphonic characters. So Chinese characters are difficult to learn.
Fourth, the conclusion.
Through the comparison between English and Chinese, we can find that Chinese grammar is relatively simple, but Chinese characters are difficult to learn. English itself has two characteristics: simple structure and strong expressive ability. This is very convenient for international communication, and it is also a huge advantage compared with Chinese.
Therefore, we can draw a conclusion that if China wants to go global, it will face many practical problems. Therefore, it is difficult for China people to go global.
