An Experimental Study On Rising Tone Sandhi Of Turkmenistan Students With Intermediate Chinese Level

Rising tone sandhi is not only an important phenomenon in Chinese pronunciation,but also a difficulty in Chinese pronunciation teaching as a second language.With the continuous development of experimental phonetics,many scholars have used more scientific experimental phonetic software to conduct experimental research on the rising tone sandhi of foreign students from different mother tongue backgrounds,while the research on the rising tone sandhi of foreign students from Turkmenistan is temporarily vacant.In order to explore the pronunciation characteristics and error performance of the rising tone sandhi of Turkmenistan students,used the way of experimental phonetics,this paper gave an acoustic description and error analysis of the single word and double word groups of six intermediate Turkmenistan students from three aspects: tone type,tone value and tone length.The main conclusions are as follows: 1.Turkmenistan students have a good command of Chinese four tones adjustment of a single word,but there are errors of confusion between Yangping and Shangsheng.2.In the tone sandhi of double word group,girls mainly have the errors of tone distribution,high tone value and long tone,boys mainly have the errors of unchanged tone,and girls’ overall mastery of tone sandhi is better than boys.In view of the above results,the fourth chapter analyzed the causes of errors from the aspects of the negative transfer of mother tongue,the negative transfer of target language knowledge and teaching,and puts forward targeted teaching methods such as software assisted teaching,highlighting tone sandhi teaching and stimulating students’ interest.
