A Study On The Word Order Errors Of Chinese Adverbials For Native Spanish Learners

With the further cooperation between China and Latin America,the number of leaners from Latin American has grown rapidly.However,because of the great differences between Chinese and Spanish,learners of Spanish-speaking background have a lot of difficulties in learning and using Chinese word order,especially,in the adverbial order.The paper is divided into five parts:The first part is introduction.It describes the background,the purpose and significance of the research,as well as the presenting research.It also introduces the research methods,the theoretical basis and the source of error data.In the second part,by reading and sorting out the grammar books and thesis,we compare and analyze the adverbials in Chinese and Spanish from three aspects:the definition,the classification,and the position in the sentence,to find out the similarities and differences in the adverbial of the two languages.In the third part,based on the collected error data,we classify and describe the errors.We firstly divide the errors into single adverbial order errors and multiple adverbial order errors,and then,according to the different meanings of adverbials,we divided the adverbial errors into time adverbial error,place adverbial error,object adverbial error,degree adverbial error,range adverbial error and so on.In the fourth part,we analyze the causes of the adverbial order errors of the Spanish-speaking learner.The main reasons are as follows:the complexity of Chinese adverbial,the negative transfer from mother tongue,the influence of cultural factors,learners' learning strategies and communicative strategies,and the influence from teachers and teaching materials.In the last part,according to the types of errors and the causes of errors,we put forward some proposals and suggestions of Chinese adverbial teaching for the teacher,we also give some specific methods for teaching.The author hope that this paper can not only provides some suggestions and gives some inspirations for teachers and researchers of Chinese as a foreign language,but also help Spanish-speaking learners to overcome the difficulties of the Chinese adverbial order and reduce the recurrence of errors.
