Linguistic Geography and Comparative French Learning
This paper discusses the feasibility and significance of the method of linguistic geography for the comparative study of linguistic differences, and analyzes the application of linguistic geography in the comparative learning of French in terms of its longitudinal historical development and horizontal differentiation. By combining spatial distribution analysis and diachronic evolution exploration, this research verifies that linguistic geography can effectively break through the limitations of traditional French learning methods that focus only on vocabulary, grammar and syntax, help learners establish a three-dimensional cognitive framework of French, and provide a more scientific, systematic and comprehensive approach for French teaching and learning.
