Аннотация

This paper explores the evolution of Chinese grammars by examining perspectives from both Chinese and Western scholarly traditions. Chinese grammar has undergone significant development over centuries, reflecting changes in linguistic theory, pedagogical approaches, and cultural contexts. Through a comparative analysis of Chinese grammatical studies from Chinese and Western perspectives, this study sheds light on the diverse methodologies, theoretical frameworks, and linguistic insights that have shaped the understanding of Chinese grammar. By tracing the historical trajectories of Chinese grammatical scholarship, this paper elucidates key themes, debates, and contributions within the field. Insights from Chinese and Western traditions offer complementary perspectives on the structure, function, and usage of Chinese language, enriching our understanding of its grammatical intricacies. This comparative approach contributes to a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of Chinese grammar, bridging linguistic scholarship across cultural and linguistic boundaries.
