Real methods and misunderstandings of Foreign Language Learning 1

Preface
　　
According to Greg Thomson, a famous linguistics, "the principle of foreign language learning is so complicated.
No one can speak clearly, but the process of mastering the language is so simple that you do not need to clarify it clearly.
Chu ." It is very complicated to discuss the principle of language learning. Of course, I cannot be sure to describe it.
Clearly. I dare not say this because there is a lot of sharp debate in the academic world about foreign language learning.
You are confident that you can resolve the debate. However, I decided to start with something simple and do some valuable work.
Let's discuss the true meaning of foreign language learning, especially the misunderstandings that are common in foreign language learning.
Analysis and clarification, hoping to help foreign language learners and inspire foreign language teaching,
I am satisfied.
I have been giving lectures on how to learn English to colleges and universities, enterprises, and other English learners for many years. Lecture
They never rely on performances or do not engage in inspirational work. Every time, they will give a serious scientific basis to everyone.
Home. Over the past five years, tens of thousands of audience members have been quite popular, and some of them are very understandable and
I would like to express my deep gratitude for agreeing with and putting forward many sharp questions and suggestions for improvement. Many people have suggested
In this speech, we will be able to change the style into an emotional and encouraging style, so that we will be able to see the whole country and accumulate wealth. Myself
I am not interested in the name. Otherwise, I have already done so. I don't want to talk nonsense and miss people. As for wealth,
I don't like it, but I already have enough. So I am lucky to be able to get rid of money now.
Angry, calm down to read and think. Now I will sort out some of my previous speeches and post them here,
I hope to discuss with you.
Main mistakes in Foreign Language Learning
Our general understanding of foreign language learning methods is:
1. To have a language environment and communicate with foreigners more, it is best to go abroad. It will be said soon.
2. To learn a foreign language, you must remember more. That is to say, you must use the memory to learn the language.
3. To correct pronunciation, you must listen to and imitate pure pronunciation, such as BBC or VOA.
4. If you want to learn the syntax of a foreign language, the sentence is correct.
5. You must have a certain vocabulary and a large number of words. However, it is difficult to recite English words.
6. I used to learn written or outdated English, which is different from my current oral English.
Okay.
7. learn a foreign language must be very hard and practice repeatedly for a long time.
"All wrong! And not only is it wrong, but the opposite is true !"
You are not mistaken. What I am saying is: "These conclusions are not only false, but are basically correct with the facts.
The opposite is true ." People have a deep misunderstanding of foreign language learning and a wide range of skills.
Degree. Despite the development of science and technology, misunderstandings about the language acquisition process are still quite common, especially
We are Chinese. Chinese People's misunderstanding of language learning comes from China's profound cultural traditions
And single nation and single language. I will help you analyze and provide analysis bases one by one.
The correct conclusion has been drawn.
"Why is it wrong? Isn't it best to learn a foreign language in a language environment? Do you want to correct your accent?
Do you want to listen to standard pronunciation? Isn't that a matter of course ?"
Well, the opposite is true. First, we need to find the simplest
Single analysis. Let's talk about 3rd items first. "correct pronunciation.
Everyone must think that if you want to learn pronunciation well or correct your own non-standard pronunciation, you must listen to pure pronunciation.
The standard pronunciation, preferably the authentic English or American. Is this still true? Unfortunately,
It's just wrong, and the opposite is true. Voice experts have found that adults cannot correct their pronunciation.
Only listen to standard pronunciation, but listen to a lot of "non-standard pronunciation", that is, the pronunciation with an accent. Ratio
Such as German English, French, Italian, Indian, Chinese, and other accents.
The more, the better. What's going on? The source of this conclusion is from the speech experts at Harvard University.
When doing accent research, we started the experiment with Japanese people.
　　
Do you know why Japanese people are used for voice experiments? Generally, this is because the Japanese
English pronunciation is hard to hear. Then I asked, why is the Japanese pronunciation hard to hear? The audience
There is always a bit of laughter, and many people say that the Japanese tongue is hard. In fact, the Japanese have the same tongue as everyone else.
In particular, the reason for incorrect pronunciation is because of their Japanese. Everyone knows that there are about 44 English letters.
Pronunciation (vowels and consonants), and only about 30 Japanese. Didn't I hear that there are 50 music maps in Japanese? Very
Unfortunately, many Japanese 50-tone diagrams are repeated. For example, the first line of the vowel is: "Ah, ah, oh ".
Different, but the second line of "kakkochi Kai Kuo" (similar Chinese Representation, don't be too real) is only a lot
The other is spelled out by the first line of vowels (Ka, KI, Ku, Kai, Ko ).
There are no 50 voices. When the Japanese speak English, many voices cannot be sent. For example
Audio, which does not exist in Japanese (No Ra, Yi Ru, Rai ro. Frequently used read and
Write. The Japanese can only describe lead and light and use "L" instead of "R". This is a typical example.
So at that time, Harvard University was looking for an adult in the United States before the Japanese people to do experiments in the United States. First, ask
Some of our experimenters, read and lead, do you understand? Listening Area
No. Again, why are they wrong? Some Japanese people say, "Our oral structure is different ." Some say
"We have very different pronunciation parts. We are on the top, and you are on the back ." Some people say, "We have a hard tongue,
." Next, I conducted an experiment to let the Japanese listen to many words starting with "R" or "L ".
Spelling). After completing the test, we found that the correct rate is 50%. You have issued
Now the problem is solved. Either of them can get the correct answer in half. Actually, it doesn't. It's purely blind, and the hit rate is of course.
Half. When this result is displayed, the tester and the testee are all silly. If they are all right, then the analysis and
You can solve the problem by adjusting the tongue position or mouth shape. If all the errors are correct, it doesn't matter.
But half of them are saved. How can we distinguish between two sounds?
Sound and correct pronunciation. But the conclusion has come out: the main reason for incorrect pronunciation is not the mouth problem,
Ear problems.

In fact, inaccurate pronunciation is mainly caused by inaccurate ears. We have practical observation experience. For example
Why is it that someone is singing? Isn't it awkward? No, mainly because the ears are inaccurate,
So when the singing and dimming people finish singing, they think they are quite right. Why do you say that I'm playing? Original
Because their ears are not allowed to listen, they can't hear the voice. (If you do not want to sing, block yourself
Try it with your ears, and someone else will say you have gone ). Then all the Japanese who have been tested are
I have lived in the United States for a while. I have to listen to standard voices every day. Why can't I change my accent? The reason is: Adult ears
Noisy, low resolution, and a new standard that is not within the voice range of your mother tongue
You cannot hear the differences between yourself and the standard audio.
I think I have already delivered it to the standard, but there is still a gap. Japanese do not have many native voices, so they are the most
Loss. (On the Internet, you can find the number of Testing networks left by the Japanese to test the R-l resolution.
Station. You can try it. Students in most regions in northern China or in the same standard Mandarin
Learning to score highly ).
Scientific experiments tell us that only children's ears have high resolutions for various languages can be heard accurately.
The pronunciation of what language is imitated in place, so adults cannot. Specifically, most people are over 12 years old.
No, this capability is lost. This causes adults to correct the pronunciation of a foreign language or increase the hair rate.
Sound accuracy. It is impossible to listen to and imitate standard foreign language pronunciation, because it cannot be done, so how to correct adult
The most important part of human pronunciation is to improve the accuracy of adult audios. Practical experience proves that many
Listening to a variety of non-standard sounds helps adults improve their listening sensitivity and resolution, so as to achieve accuracy and self
However, you can correct your pronunciation. (What are various non-standard audios? For example, very
Interesting. The French accent is vehi intehisting and the Japanese accent is Veli.
Indelisding ", with a Chinese accent" Murray-indelisding "). After a period of time
After the training of various accents (of course, it is not just for non-standard voices, but for the standard and self-defined accents of the sentence
The imitation of the pronunciation of the same time ratio training), the listener's listening sensitivity is improved, and even accurate score
In which country the speaker came from, the pronunciation naturally improved. This is a science in which adults can correct their pronunciation.
The method is the opposite of the conclusion that everyone assumes.
At this point, do you still have questions about this conclusion? In fact, Chinese students are the easiest to understand this
Conclusion. Because the Chinese accent changes significantly, it is more obvious than English. The English accent is different from the American accent.
No, it cannot catch up with the difference between Mandarin and Tianjin (only 120 kilometers away from Beijing ). So Chinese counterparts
Sound is sensitive. Interestingly, there is a standard voice in China called Mandarin, but not in English.
In the United States, the English language is not standard, and the English language is not standard.
He is British and sometimes finds it strange. (Do you know that people in London often omit the "h" and "T" sounds? For example
"Head" is said to be "Ed", "better" is said to be-R ").
The absolute standard of lattice. Chinese people should speak standard Mandarin. But in the same way
Years old) not accurate, there will be an accent in adulthood, especially the southern students suffer the most, because of lack of sound. That
How should I correct the pronunciation? If, by taking it for granted, everyone can listen to the standard sound every day.
Can I correct the pronunciation when I watch the news broadcast and broadcasting? The result is invalid. Years of accent in Beijing
Is it changed? The result is not enough (or a child .) Let's find a person who speaks standard Mandarin.
Can it be corrected? Everyone laughed. A lot of people have helped their parents correct their accents for years.
No. What should we do? The principle is the same: Listen to the accents of people from different places and conduct comparative training.
When you practice, your ears become more sensitive and your accents become smaller. This is the way for adults to correct their pronunciation.
Method. (Some film schools adopt a similar approach when correcting adult actors from other places .) I was thinking
The opposite is true, but now everyone understands. Unfortunately, many English teachers do not understand this
So it is recommended that you listen to a standard voice or catch up with a Chinese speaker. This misunderstanding should be corrected now
Yes.
Keating1985 has some truth. We suggest you take advantage of the opportunity to imitate all kinds of accents.
It is helpful, but do not offend students with accents.
Chinese people still have advantages in English pronunciation. Generally, Chinese people think that Chinese accents are better than Chinese accents.
It is nice to understand. Beijingers especially take advantage of low prices. All kinds of English consonants Except th and V are not included in Mandarin,
The other consonants are similar, but the original sounds are different. You need some time.
However, if you practice Mandarin first, the English pronunciation will certainly improve.
Thank you for your support. Let's continue with this article. I have covered several misunderstandings before proposing a solution.
The case will be interspersed with the scientific basis and foreign research results.
Complete concepts and implementation methods can be achieved through language learning.
