June 2023165438+1October 14 The Information Office of the Ministry of Education officially replied: According to the Chinese Pinyin Scheme, the single vowel "o" can refer to the pronunciation of "oh". According to the opinion of the State Language Committee Office, "O" is a single vowel with a round lip in the back half of the tongue. Pronunciation position and pronunciation method are: the upper and lower lips are round, the tongue is retracted, and the tongue position is half high.
According to the Chinese phonetic scheme, the single vowel "o" can refer to the pronunciation of "oh". At the same time, "Oh" is a polyphonic word. The person in charge of the relevant departments of the Ministry of Education stressed that pinyin teaching should be based on the Chinese Pinyin Scheme and the necessary design should be made from the teaching object.
In the Chinese phonetic scheme, the Chinese character "I" is used to mark the vowel "uo" and "ou" is used to mark the vowel "ou". "O" (OH), "UO" (WO) and "ou" (OU) are three vowels in the vowel table of the Chinese Pinyin scheme. Reading "o" as "Ou" or "Wo" is definitely incorrect.
Pinyin teaching has a basis
Professor Song Xinqiao from the Putonghua Education Research and Development Center of the Chinese University of Hong Kong was a researcher of the State Language Committee. Author of Putonghua Phonetic Training Course (3rd Edition). Song Xinqiao recently published an article in China Architecture magazine, discussing the pronunciation standard of the single vowel "O".
Song Xinqiao emphasized that pinyin teaching should be based on the scheme of Chinese pinyin. Relevant scholars from the Information Office of the Ministry of Education and the Institute of Linguistics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences support Professor Song's view. The relevant person in charge of the Language Information Management Department of the Ministry of Education also stressed that the scheme of Chinese Pinyin is the basis of Chinese Pinyin teaching.
The Chinese Pinyin Scheme is the legal Pinyin Scheme in People's Republic of China (PRC) and the only national standard adopted by the National People's Congress in language and writing. The Chinese Pinyin Scheme is an international standard for the United Nations and the International Organization for Standardization to spell special terms and words about China in world literary works.
Song Xinqiao believes that the discussion on Chinese Pinyin should be based on the scheme of Chinese Pinyin and should not be played at will. When you encounter pinyin problems, you must first consult the Chinese pinyin scheme. In daily life, if you look for a Xinhua dictionary or a modern Chinese dictionary, just turn to the attached table and you will see the Chinese Pinyin scheme.
