Tool Philosophy In second language acquisition, the phenomenon of mixing Chinese and English is called code-mixing. It is an effective language learning strategy, using a known language as scaffolding, based on a naturalistic learning approach. The greatest obstacle for Chinese native speakers learning English is Chinese itself, but it is also the strongest aid. Frequently using Chinese to compare with English can lead to Chinglish. However, using the code-mixing strategy continuously compares and connects with English, naturally absorbing new vocabulary and promoting language acquisition.
