Application and Research of Cognitive Linguistics Theory in Japanese Teaching in Colleges and Universities

Abstract

The traditional scattered teaching mode based on generative grammar in college Japanese teaching can help students find the connection between scattered knowledge, but due to the lack of context influence, students’ Japanese learning efficiency is not high. The theory of cognitive linguistics provides a new way for Japanese teaching, emphasizing the cultivation of students’ cognitive thinking. Its application in the teaching of Japanese vocabulary, grammar and communication will help students more deeply remember and understand the complex knowledge of Japanese vocabulary and grammar, and lay a solid foundation for skilled use of Japanese in the future. This paper mainly introduces the theory of cognitive linguistics, points out the shortcomings of cognitive linguistics theory in research, and discusses and studies the practical application of cognitive linguistics theory in Japanese teaching in colleges and universities from many aspects, so as to improve the level of Japanese teaching in colleges and universities.
