Features: Comparative Study of English and Chinese, as a discipline, is a product that emerged in academia in China since the reform and opening-up. The emergence of any new thing in the world is not something that falls from the sky, nor is it something that a great master can proclaim with a single cry. Before the birth of the discipline of Comparative Study of English and Chinese, it had a favorable nurturing environment. Let alone the well-established fields of Comparative Linguistics and Contrastive Linguistics abroad, within China itself, it was not an unheard-of oddity. This book is one of the "Graduate Series Textbooks for English Language and Literature Majors in Higher Education Institutions." Comparative Study of English and Chinese is a rapidly developing new discipline. The research in this book is mainly focused on the basic levels of English and Chinese, such as phonetics, literature, word formation, and sentence patterns, aiming to improve the effectiveness of bilingual learning and provide new methods for enhancing translation decision-making.
