So what is language?

Chinese language is expressed in modern Chinese and selects excellent and classic works from the literature library. Through the guidance of teachers, it is used to enrich students' emotions, improve students' ideological and cognitive realm, and inspire and strengthen students. It is an important discipline that inherits the thinking ability and is the basic platform of human civilization.

Origin

The word "language" has a short history. In 1905, after the Qing Dynasty abolished the imperial examination system, it began to open new schools. The courses and teaching materials at that time were all imported from the West. There was only one subject called "Chinese Language", and the ancient Chinese texts taught were still taught. After the May 4th Movement broke out, vernacular was advocated and classical Chinese was opposed. Chinese classes were affected. Primary schools therefore changed to "Guoyu". The teaching materials had distinctive oral characteristics and used vernacular short essays, children's songs, stories, etc. Chinese language courses are still offered in middle schools, and the proportion of vernacular Chinese has also increased significantly, with works by new literature writers such as Lu Xun, Ye Shengtao, and Bing Xin being selected. In the late 1930s, Ye Shengtao and Xia Chuzun proposed the concept of "Chinese" and tried to compile new Chinese textbooks. Unfortunately, they were forced to terminate due to Japan's invasion of China. After the liberation of the country, Mr. Ye Shengtao once again proposed to combine "Guoyu" and "Guowen" into one and change the name to "Chinese language". This suggestion was adopted by the educational institutions of the North China government and later promoted across the country. Since then, "Chinese" has become a main course in primary and secondary schools and even expanded to other countries.

Learning

Chinese is a broad and profound subject. If you want to learn Chinese well, learning interest and good study habits are very important. Some people find it difficult to learn Chinese. I think it is mainly because they do not master the correct methods and do not have a golden key to open the door of Chinese. To learn Chinese well, we must focus on cultivating learning interest, developing good learning habits, accumulating learning methods, and enhancing learning abilities. I hope that after you finish reading this article, it can pave the way for your Chinese language, add bricks and tiles to your Chinese language building, and pave a broad road for your learning. Being interested in Chinese language learning will lay the solid foundation for your Chinese learning. No matter what you do, interest is the most important. Two thousand years ago, the "literary sage" Confucius once said, "Those who know are not as good as those who are good at it, and those who are good at it are not as good as those who are happy." This sentence just shows that "good" and "happiness" can be said to be spiritual pillars for a person's pursuit of something. My friend, if you are not interested in Chinese for the time being, it doesn't matter. You can start from "zero" start. To cultivate interest, you can recite, copy some wonderful passages, philosophical famous quotes, and extracurricular knowledge. In this way, slowly accumulate, and one day, you will suddenly find that it is so easy to be a knowledgeable scholar. You can also participate in some language-related activities, such as speeches, essay writing, etc. Einstein once said: "In school and in life, the most important motivation for work is the fun of work, the fun of getting results from work, and the awareness of the social value of such results." As just said, You can participate in social activities, and then someone will ask, if you win, it will of course make us more motivated and more interested, but on the contrary, it will dampen our enthusiasm and become disgusted with the Chinese language. Isn't that counterproductive? I can definitely answer: "No!". This depends on how you recognize the value of the results. As said, you will be confident to learn Chinese well. If you fail, you can self-examine and see where you did not do well. "Frustration is a huge wealth for the strong and an abyss for the weak." You can think about it, just because you discovered We will make up for the shortcomings and do better. If interest in learning is the foundation, good study habits are a skilled architect. The quality of your study habits is directly related to the quality of your study. Ye Shengtao believes: "From primary school teachers to university professors, their mission is to help students develop good habits and to help students develop good habits in politics, culture and science." From this sentence we can at least see the importance of good habits. In fact, good habits are mainly developed by yourself.

There is a saying in the countryside that goes like this: "Habits become nature." If you stick to a good study habit, over time, it will become unshakable "nature." So how to develop good study habits, we can learn from study practice and articles and works. "Book of Rites" says, "Learn extensively, inquire deeply, think carefully, discern clearly, and practice diligently." This is a good study habit, and we can slowly integrate it into our study. "Learning without thinking is useless, thinking without learning is dangerous", which is another wake-up call for us to combine "learning" and "thinking". "Learn and learn from time to time", "review the past and learn the new". Many celebrities have made summaries of learning. We might as well give it a try (but not blindly). In fact, it is more important for us to summarize from our studies. For example, in a quiet place, we might as well sit down and calm down, and think about prose, famous quotes, etc., which will not only make us happier, but also deepen our emotions. impression. If good study habits are like an original architect, then good study methods are exquisite and practical building materials.

Methods

When talking about learning methods, "Yu" means discourse and "文" means writing. In fact, there are many overlaps with study habits, such as: transcribing highlights, reciting ancient poems, writing down wonderful moments at any time, etc. are all good learning methods. The most important thing in Chinese language learning is accumulation and application. The above methods are all important means of accumulation. Our use of Chinese knowledge can be said to be all-encompassing and can be used in many aspects, such as: social interaction, writing, speech... They are all closely related to us. Some people are very good at learning Chinese, but when they use it, they put dumplings in a teapot - they can't pour them out. . In fact, the purpose of learning is to use it. This is the outline. Since the methods vary from person to person, I won’t discuss it too much! I believe, dear friend, you will have some clever ideas. Good study habits, strong interest, and correct methods are of no use if you don’t have the ability to learn Chinese. Learning ability is gradually cultivated and accumulated. Some people say that Lu Xun's articles are difficult to understand. In fact, it is because they have not found a breakthrough. To understand a sentence, we must connect it with the background of the time and the context, so that you can solve the problem easily. When learning, we must pay attention to the consolidation of basic abilities. We must first remember some writing methods, rhetoric and the meaning of symbols. Only with such a solid foundation can we improve. "Haste makes waste" Developing learning ability is not something that can be accomplished in a day, it requires your perseverance.
