Abstract
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.
