Please think about it, English Who invented it? British people! Do English people know Chinese? incognizance! Do English people need to remember the Chinese meaning of English words when they learn English words? No, there are no Chinese characters in English textbooks. How can we remember the Chinese meaning of words? So since English people don't need to remember (or even can't see) the Chinese meaning of words when learning English, why should Chinese people remember the Chinese meaning of words when learning English? Don't you think this is strange?
However, since Chinese people always memorize the Chinese meaning of words when they learn English, they can't find it strange to "memorize Chinese characters". In fact, when you think about it carefully, this behavior is really strange. The source of the strangeness is not the behavior itself, but that Chinese people generally do not directly recognize the meaning of English words, so they have to rely on Chinese symbols to mechanically help remember the meaning of English words. To learn English in this way is not only unnecessary, but also bound to fall into a disaster of endless symbol memory.
In fact, English words, like Chinese characters, have a lot of "radicals". Once you know the radicals, you can directly guess the meaning of the word. Although you can't say 100%, you can at least guess roughly. At least you can suddenly understand the meaning of the word after others tell you, In this way, you can greatly enhance your ability to "see the words and understand the meaning" of English words, so that you can really understand a word, and take its Chinese meaning as a general reference only.
For example:
For example, the word representative, please don't hurry to tell me that you know the word. In fact, you can't "know" the word. You just remember the correspondence between the English letters and the two Chinese character symbols "representative" by your memory. How hard will you have to learn English in this way? Now let me tell you why this word means "representative". Re is a radical in English, which means "back"; Pre is also a radical, meaning "forward"; Sent is also a radical, which means "send out"; A is only a "connector" between the radical. Without it, the two consonant letters t will be connected together. The pronunciation will be inseparable and difficult, so a vowel letter a will be used to separate it; Tive is also a radical, which means "person". What does it mean that these radicals are connected together? re-pre-sent-a-tive， It means "the person who comes back forward sent out", that is, "the person who comes back to ask for everyone's opinions and is sent out to speak for everyone", which means "representative"! To know a word in this way is to really "know" the word and recognize it in its essence.
Let's take another example: psychology. Psy=sci, a radical, means "know"; Cho is a radical, which means "heart"; Lo is a radical, meaning "say"; Gy is a radical, which means "learning". So psy cho logic is "the theory of knowing the mind", so it means "psychology". By analogy, without many examples, the point I want to express is clear, that is, don't memorize the Chinese meaning of a word by rote, but use the method of identifying "radical" to really understand a word. After you really know the word, you will find that the Chinese translation in the word list is actually very reluctant, sometimes even unable to translate at all, Because Chinese and English are two different languages typeface The two words do not correspond to each other in writing. Only reciting the meaning of the Chinese characters of an English word can not really understand the word, which will cause many difficulties in subsequent learning, and will cause you to see English words in the fog all your life. You will never get rid of the strangeness.
Then the next question is, how many "radicals" are there in English, and how to know and learn them?
When I answered this question, I found that there are two main reasons why Chinese people are unfamiliar with English radicals. One is that these important contents are not in the school English textbooks, and we can't learn them in the classroom (this is the defect that needs to be remedied urgently in the current school English textbooks); Second, the books on this subject sold in a few bookstores are too complex, with hundreds of pages of bitter and huge content, which affects the popularity of these common sense and makes what is common sense not common sense. In fact, the scientific name of the radical in English is "root", and there are only more than 200 commonly used radicals. They are as common and important as 26 letters, and as common and important as the radical in Chinese. They are important content that should be learned in the first lesson of learning English. English learners should master these important knowledge as early as possible, Get rid of the foolhardy state of rote learning as soon as possible, and enter the scientific and efficient literacy state as soon as possible. It is an important content that should be learned in English root class. English learners should master these important common sense as soon as possible, get rid of the foolhardy state of rote learning as soon as possible, and enter the scientific and efficient literacy state as soon as possible.
