A CROSS-CULTURE STUDY ON CHINESE AND ENGLISH IN CHINESE CONTEXT
Journal Title: Topics In Education, Culture and Social Development (TECSD) - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Based on previous research that the younger generations have a misunderstanding about the way typical Chinese expressed in English, this study discussed the possibility and rationality of appropriateness of English use in Chinese context through three aspects. Firstly, Western sinologists set good models for Chinese people to follow; Secondly, Chinese people’s uncomfortableness is actually from our incompetence of appreciating Chinese culture; Thirdly, English cultural conventions are not set as the only rules to restrict Chinese people to communicate typical Chinese culture. From the discussion it concluded that English variants should also apply to Chinese culture so that we have confidence in using English in Chinese context
