Abstract

Background and Aims: Folk elements, being a crucial component of Chinese language instruction, receive varying degrees of attention across different series of localized Chinese textbooks. This article focuses on examining and analyzing folk custom elements in five sets of localized Chinese textbooks for secondary schools in Thailand. The objective is to offer valuable insights and references for developing localized Chinese textbooks specifically tailored for secondary education in Thailand.

Methodology: The selection of five sets of Thai localized Chinese textbooks based on the textbooks’ universality, applicability and availability. Then count number of folk elements in these selected textbooks, and classified the folk elements into four groups, and count the number and proportion of various folk elements.

Results: The proportion of material tradition elements and language tradition elements in secondary school Chinese textbooks is very high. The arrangement and presentation of traditional elements in Chinese textbooks are designed to be insufficient, Chinese traditional elements are more numerous than Thai ones. At some points, the needs and objectives of students in learning Chinese are neglected.

Conclusion: Before editing Chinese textbooks for learners in Thailand, it’s necessary to rely on a comparison between elements of Chinese and Thai as a basis. And should more emphasis on displaying elements of Thai. Folk elements selected for the arrangement of Chinese textbooks should be consistent with the level, ability, and needs of the learner in learning Chinese of Thai learners.
