Analysis of thai sudents' errors in the usages of "GOU X" and its pedagogy
Abstract:
Gou(够) is one of the most important words that learners must handle in the area of teaching Chinese as a second language. Therefore, gou X has automatically become a must teaching and learning point. Scholars have different views on the grammatical attributes of gou. Their perspectives are still being debated even nowadays. Meanwhile, the gou X construction is rich and complicated, and its syntactic function is varied. With all these reasons, the gou X construction is found to be difficult to students who study Chinese as a foreign language. Up to now, much research has been done on gou from different angles. However, only the theoretical issues of gou have been probed, we have not found any works related to error analysis of the gou X construction. This has been the motivation for me to study Thai students errors in the usages of the gou X construction. This study firstly reviews the literature on the grammatical attributes of gou, semantic and syntactic function of gou. The contrastive analysis, error analysis and interlanguage theory have been probed to lay the theoretical basis of this study, the corpus of Peking University has been involved for analyzing the grammatical attributes of gou and the syntactic function of gou X. We have particularly studied the usage of the gou X construction in various frameworks. Then based on the questionnaire, types and causes of errors in Thai students usage of the gou X construction. Finally, corresponding teaching strategies, which are directed to Thai students and their causes of errors, are provided at the end of this study.
