Abstract

Language is important for everyone and plays a vital role in the educational and cultural development of a nation. Learning and teaching of any language is a difficult and technical job in every society. The correct pronunciation is the most basic condition to learn a language. Han students face many difficulties to learn the Kyrgyz language. This study will discuss the problems and possible solutions of Han student’s difficulty to learn the Kyrgyz language. When the pronunciation is suffixed with the vowel [ы] in the consonant, it is a common problem for Han students to learn the Kyrgyz pronunciation of it. Because some students have confused and mixed the phenomenon of phonetic pronunciation in Chinese Pinyin and Kyrgyz. To understand the Kyrgyz pronunciation and knowing the pronunciation skills is difficult, which is based on the accurately grasping of the pronunciation part to understand that there are two pronunciation variants of certain letters in the Kyrgyz language. Applying imitative, replacement, and other practical and effective methods to repeat the pronunciation and for more accurate practice are the good solution for Han student's problems to learn the Kyrgyz language. The teacher should promptly correct the student’s pronunciation errors and at the same time strengthens the student's "three more training" method after class. This study can effectively and universally solve the pronunciation problems of Han students. Moreover, this study will help them to learn Kyrgyz phoneme and letters more easily than other methods.
