The Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) school is a dynamic and emerging research field in language studies. SFL offers a fresh theoretical framework for language teaching, research, and analysis, emphasizing social communicative functions. It has gained international recognition and is widely applied in language education. This book targets Chinese language educators and researchers, providing a concise introduction to SFL theory, research methods, and its application in Chinese teaching. Divided into three parts, the book covers key concepts in SFL theory (functional part), language analysis tools (systemic part), and the author's exploration of using SFL theory in guiding Chinese teaching (application part). The book not only summarizes previous research on using SFL theory to study Chinese, contributing to theoretical advancements, but also offers preliminary insights into applying SFL theory to innovate Chinese teaching methods, providing practical guidance for educators and researchers in Hong Kong. Additionally, it includes a comprehensive bibliography for readers interested in further self-study.
