The present studies examined differences in English words repetition by Japanese and Chinese preschoolers. Thirty Japanese and 27 Chinese preschoolers were taken as sample to test how they repeat two-syllable English words under different conditions-with syllable segmentation or without syllable segmentation. The results are as follows: 1) Japanese preschoolers repeated the two-syllable English word in the same way under both conditions, while 2) Chinese preschoolers repeated the two-syllable English word better under the condition of words without segmentation. Chinese preschoolers perceive pronunciation of English words as a whole unit, while Japanese preschoolers tend to divide one word into smaller unit.
