Title: Issues to Consider When Supporting the Acceptance of China English
Abstract: Against the background that World English is so popular, this article begins with a discussion of whether or not “China English” should be accepted in the English curricula in Chinese school? According to previous studies and theories, we can conclude that it is necessary and important for Chinese people to learn and use it. However, there are three issues which people have to consider in order to spread the concept “China English” as well as its usage better. The first one is to distinguish the two terminologies “China English” and “Chinglish” accurately which can avoid feeling of shame from people due to misunderstanding. The second one is to avoid making pragma linguistic errors because of the lack of local cultural knowledge or implications. The last issue is to appeal to government agency or educational apartment for making codification of China English so that people will know it better. The study benefits a lot to Chinese people who learn English as a second language.
