Practicability is what features this Chinese phonetics introduction program –
With overseas learners of Chinese as the targeted users, a systematic teaching of pinyin is given respecting initials, finals, tones as well as its spelling.
A complete English explanation is applied to depict how and where the initials and finals of pinyin are enunciated physically. Moreover, such sounds are not only demonstrated by voice but also cartoon pictures.
Cartoons are again employed to display syllable and word combination procedures and facilitate similar sound comparisons and contracts, reinforced by the demonstration reading. Appropriate intervals are left for the learner to repeat and follow up.
Dialogs are en facto pragmatic situational scenes which encompass focuses of learning in each episode. Baldness of syllables and words detailing could be thereby rendered into useful conversations for students.
Wu Shuping, teacher in the College of Advanced Training, Beijing Language and Culture University, has been engaged in teaching Chinese as a foreign language for a long time and has rich experience in teaching and textbook compilation. The published books include Contemporary Chinese, HSK Simulated Tests (Elementary), Chinese Today, Speaking Chinese, 380 Chinese Verbs, etc.
