This book was released on 2009 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the pedagogical implications section, an argument is advanced favoring presentation of the conceptual structure of classifier categories in teaching Chinese as a second or foreign language. It is suggested that the introduction of a classifier in second language classrooms follow three steps: (a) reveal the central sense, the etymological meaning, of the classifier; (b) introduce each of the polysemic senses with a comprehensive list of nouns classified by the classifier; and (c) disclose the motivations behind the classifier category.
Download or read book The Semantics of Chinese Classifiers and Linguistic Relativity written by Song Jiang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Semantics of Chinese Classifiers and Linguistic Relativity focuses on the semantic structure of Chinese classifiers under the cognitive linguistics framework, and the implications thereof on linguistic relativity and language acquisition. It examines the semantic correlation between a given classifier and its associated nouns. Nouns in Chinese, which are assigned specific classifiers according to their selected characteristics, reflect the process of human categorization. The concrete categories formed by the relationship between nouns and classifiers may serve to explain the conceptual structure of the Chinese language and certain underlying aspects of culture and human cognition. Song Jiang is Assistant Professor of Chinese for the Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures at university of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.
Download or read book Plurality and Classifiers across Languages in China written by Dan Xu and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-12-19 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plural marking, numeral classifiers and reduplication constitute the main means of quantification marking in the domain of grammar. The contributions in this book focus on the typological correlation between the three different strategies for quantification, as well as on some general issues. A better understanding of the quantification strategies in the languages of China will enrich our comprehension of human language and thought. The book is expected to have an impact on the study of linguistic typology, language contact, and patterns of the evolution.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces Chinese language-processing issues and techniques to readers who already have a basic background in natural language processing (NLP). Since the major difference between Chinese and Western languages is at the word level, the book primarily focuses on Chinese morphological analysis and introduces the concept, structure, and interword semantics of Chinese words. The following topics are covered: a general introduction to Chinese NLP; Chinese characters, morphemes, and words and the characteristics of Chinese words that have to be considered in NLP applications; Chinese word segmentation; unknown word detection; word meaning and Chinese linguistic resources; interword semantics based on word collocation and NLP techniques for collocation extraction.

Download or read book Classifier Structures in Mandarin Chinese written by Niina Ning Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Classifier Structure in Mandarin Chinese, Niina Ning Zhang proposes a new approach to the count-mass contrast, and the properties and functions of classifiers when they occur with numerals, with various quantifiers, in compounds, and in reduplicative forms. The new approach makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the existence of classifiers in numeral classifier languages. The investigation also uncovers that certain non-classifier languages lack only one type of classifiers, whereas other non-classifier languages may lack other types of classifiers.
