Chinese and Dongxiang language, whose word-formation system has big difference, belong to different language families. According to incomplete statistics, as far as now academic studies are more comparatively about Chinese word-formation, Dongxiang language word-formation, or Chinese and some other kinds of language word-formation contrast. However, articles about Chinese and Dongxiang language word-formation contrast studies are little.Based on previous studies, this essay intends to give a comparison research about deriving, compound word-building and word stress of Chinese and Dongxiang language though examples, analysis and conclusion methods. It discovers the similarities and differences of their word-building and word stress in order to know more about different family languages’comparative analysis research practice, discovering their word-building and language typology essential features and widen the eye of language demonstration contrast study.Lexical word-building is mainly deriving law, which composes word called a derivative. The similarities and differences in the field of Lexical word-building lie in:Chinese belongs to isolating language which is short of strict form change and whose derivation law is too little to become the main Chinese word-formation form. Chinese derivation law is to append the prefix, suffix or infix on the root, which has generally one additional affix. Dongxiang language belongs to form language, whose deriving law word-formation form flourish and which is a main word-formation form. Deriving word-formation is by appending suffix on the root or the stem. There is no prefix, infix form. It only has suffixes form, and the additional affix has one at least. Chinese word-formation law still has overlapping law, and Dongxiang language only has configuration overlapping.Syntax word-formation is mainly compound words. The similarities and differences in the field of Syntax word-formation law are:The compound word of Chinese has allying self with a type, is partial to rectifying a type, supplementing a type, moving the guest type, the subject-predicate type, being linked with an ejector half, being the language type concurrently and so on. Chinese restores lawfulness is that the root composes in reply root word-formation, the compound words accounts for a most in vocabulary. Dongxiang language’syntax word-formation is about a word and a compound word, only when the quantity standing side by side concerning and setting a limit for two kinds compound words, as a result the quantity of what can be composed compound word is less.Chinese word-formation gives first place for complex lawfulness derives law being subsidiary; Dongxiang language is to give first place to deriving law, complex lawfulness puts particular emphasis on order subsidiary. Their word-building have different points. Because of complexity of Chinese word-building methods, composed words’reading law, stress form, vowel-retro flexion, the length, and the tone have difference. Dongxiang language belongs to Mongolic language, in later stage Dongxiang people influenced by other language so that it differs in reading law, stress form and distribution. Comparing their stress form is helpful to actual state constructed terms by bilingual depth acquaintance diversity method.This paper applies to give an example law, contrast analyses law, induction studies about Chinese and Dongxiang language which have both constructing morphology similarities and differences. It analyzes morphology general structure in word-formation idea and deep-seated factors such as diversity, background, mode of thinking, word-formation points, word stress form, humanity environment, geographic conditions, and language culture and so on.
