Description
Memorizing thousands of Chinese words is one of the most frustrating endeavors for Chinese language learners. Learning Chinese word structure helps the Chinese language learner to learn Chinese words better. As Chinese and Myanmar Language are monosyllabic tonal language belonging to the Sino-Tibetan Language family, there are similar characteristics in their word structures. On the other hand, as the word order in sentences are different in Chinese and Myanmar language , there are also different word structures. Though the comparative analysis of word structures in Modern Chinese and Myanmar language , this study attempt to point out the similar and different word structures and highlight the word structures that need to be paid special attention in teaching and learning Chinese words, thereby helping Myanmar learners to tackle unfamiliar Chinese word without trouble in reading comprehension and enhancing vocabulary building. This paper describe the morphological structures of the words in Modern Chinese and Myanmar language, and also explores whether there is any relationship between the meaning, word class and word structure. The findings reveal the similarities in word structures of Modern Chinese and Myanmar language such as monosyllabic morphemes serving as basic components in forming single morpheme words and compound words. Among the similar structure , there are still differences in the sequential order of constituent morphemes such as opposite order of verb and its object in the compound word formed by a verb and object in Chinese and Myanmar language, Head-Post modifier structure and ABAB, ABB, ABCC, ABAC pattern lexical reduplicated words in Myanmar language, Noun-Classifier structure and consonant-vowel alliterated word in Chinese, etc. Regarding to the relationship between the word class and word structure, the word classes of morphemes do not determine the word class of the whole word with the exception of affixed words. There is a certain extent of relationship between the meanings of the morphemes and the whole word except the simple word and the compound word with altered or idiomatic meanings which should be the focal points in teaching Chinese words as their lexical meaning could not be worked out from their constituent morphemes causing difficulty in understanding their meanings.
