全世界都在学中国话
孔夫子的话 越来越国际化
全世界都在讲中国话
我们说的话 让世界都认真听话
……
2007年,华语女子团体S.H.E的一首《中国话》红遍大街小巷,10年后,歌词里的场景已变为现实。
近年来,“中文热”席卷全球,不仅各国大学相继设立了中文专业,很多中小学也都开设了汉语课程,而越来越多的外国家长也希望自己的孩子能够从小学习汉语。
学汉语从娃娃抓起,就连美国总统家也不例外。近日,特朗普在访华期间,忍不住秀出自己外孙女阿拉贝拉的中文水平。在发布的一段视频中,阿拉贝拉身穿旗袍,大方展示了自己的中文才艺。
The six-year-old sings two songs Our Fields, Beautiful Fields, and My Good Mom. She also displayed knowledge about Chinese literature by reciting Three Character Classic, a Confucianist volume to educate young children, and two ancient poems of Li Bai, Watching the Fall of Lushan Mountain, and Departing from Baidi City in the Morning.
6岁的阿拉贝拉演唱了《我们的田野》、《我的好妈妈》两首中文歌,为了展示自己对中国文学的了解,她还背诵了儒学启蒙读本《三字经》以及李白的两首古诗《望庐山瀑布》、《早发白帝城》。
一些网友表示,这水平比许多中国小朋友都要厉害。
事实上,不只是特朗普家的孩子,王室后代以及商界大佬的子女们都开始学起了汉语!
