Abstract

Pinyin is the most important spelling tool for Chinese language learning, but Pinyin has influenced English learning to some extent. However, this paper will find out the similarities and differences between pinyin and phonetic symbols by comparing them. On the one hand, Pinyin has a beneficial effect on English, because there is a common appearance of letters between the two languages’ spelling, which allows students to memorize them quickly. On the other hand, there are still huge differences between them, and some of the commonalities between the two languages will lead students to misunderstanding, which gradually becomes a kind of confusion. In view of the pros and cons of language learning, teachers should be more patient and impart practical skills. In particular, the teaching focus should be placed on students’ phonetic symbols teaching, in that way students will understand that the basis of learning English is achieved by phonetic symbols.
