Abstract
In the "going global" strategy for Chinese culture development, a series of traditional Chinese cultural activities and the ones with innovative fusion of western modern elements increasingly brisk up in the world cultural stage. "Chinese English", not “Chinglish”, popped into the view of foreigners. As one of the most common languages in the world, English is a necessary skill for social development in the 21st century, especially in the context of global economic integration, and thus more and more Chinese scholars and experts have begun to pay attention to the spread of Chinese culture in the western world, especially in English. The "Chinese English" is a national variant of English with Chinese characteristics, which is a part of English. What’s more, Chinese English enriches English. English is incomplete without Chinese English. It is firmly believed that Chinese English will develop with the continuous development of China, and definitely enlarge the influence and the soft power of our overall culture in the world.
