Abstract

There is an increasingly urgent need for international students to learn and use loanwords in intercultural communication. Chinese loanwords in international Chinese textbooks have certain research value. With the textbook Development Chinese Intermediate synthesis as the investigation object and the Xinhua Dictionary of Loanable Words as the retrieval tool, the analysis of the Chinese loanwords is conducted by data analysis. It is found that the number of Chinese loanwords in the textbook is considerable, rich in etymology and diverse in parts of speech. Chinese loanwords have cultural characteristics, which can see the development and evolution of Chinese, understand the language and cultural differences of different ethnic groups, reduce the adverse factors of international Chinese teaching, and promote the effective development of cross-cultural exchanges.
