碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 華語文教學系 === 107 === The production of popular language didn't just happen in modern times. Actually, people know how to use refined language to express their own ideas or reflect the social situation at that moment. That's why we have a lot of idioms, slogans, dialects and phrases been created then. These expressions might be in a leading role for that specific time zone. They are even defined as "popular language" back then. These languages enlighten human being's life. As a second language learner, if he or she can communicate with others by using some idioms, slogans, dialects and phrases,the distance between two sides shortened and they can even identify their social status and positions without great difficulty. With the convenience and development of internet, the popularity of 3C products and the rising of China, many countries realized that it they need to start learning Mandarin in order to have a good relationship and do business with China. Learning Mandarin becomes a trend and must all over the world. As we all know that the world has become a global village, the connection is never this closer. Where there are people, there are popular languages. There are no limits or boundaries to keep popular language away from us. Popular languagescan pop up where the internet is. Some popular language will last as long as the stars in the universe, but some of them will only stay temporarily and lose their popularity or fade away after the news or events or freshness gone. As a Mandarin teacher, everyone has his own opinion regarding to teach the popular language or not in a regular basis.We couldn't deny the fact that popular language did "live" in our daily life. From my personal point of view, the answer is definitely "YES." We not only teach the second language learners popular language in time but also in depth. The students will benefit and adapt themselves in the cultural life easier and happier. The more the second language learners communicating with others in authentic languages in daily life, the more sense of achievement they will experience. Mandarin is spoken in Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Macao, but the political system is quite different from one another. However, the differences not only inspire the creativity and innovation of popular language and also increase thevariety and diversity in Mandarin. In this way, the vocabulary of popular language becomes abundant and dynamic. The thesis on one hand aims to do some researches and collaborate the latest information across the Mainland, Taiwan and Hong Kong on popular languages and also offer some suggestions or share some teaching strategies for applying popular language teaching in regular courses for mandarin teachers. On the other hand, my intention is to have a basic understanding on how mandarin teachers integrated popular languages into their curriculum and how much they know about popular languages. Most of all, as a researcher, I can have an overview on Mandarin teachers' opinions and current situation regarding to popular languages. So I started with reading a lot of articles and periodicals and collected related data. Set up the research topics and confirm the research methodology and questions. I also collected the related documents and analysis and tailor-made the content of the survey. List the potential candidate for the survey. I sent out the survey by Google document. After finished doing the survey, I collected and analized the result of the survey, and also worked on the result by reflection and feedback. In addition to that, I designed three teaching activities on Chinese Mandarin Popular language teaching. In the end, I also shared my personal opinions on the research perspectives of Chinese Mandarin Popular language teaching in the future.
