Abstract
The present study investigates how native Chinese speakers learning Japanese only for four months in China (n=101) acquire te-form in four categories and five inflection types of 54 different verbs (Cronbach's reliability, α=.86). The results of the te form test indicate that already-learned verbs were better performed in te inflections than pseudo-verbs. Yet, both of these categories exhibited over 88.00% accuracy: -nde form was the most difficult and -ite/itte was the second most difficult te inflection to produce correctly. The study concluded that native Chinese speakers learning Japanese, even for a short period of four months, adequately apply their knowledge of te inflection rules to various verbs, with some assistance of lexical memory.
