The objectives of this course are to provide you with the foundations for reading and understanding classical Chinese texts. This is done through a brief introduction to classical Chinese grammar, with special reference to grammatical features of essential parts of speech, usage of function words, peculiar word order and peculiar syntactic constructions. You will learn to make distinctions in classical Chinese grammar through comparison with modern Chinese grammar, and hence strengthen their ability to understand classical Chinese in reading.
