The process of learning a foreign language naturally involves information transfer from learner's native language. thia research, however, focuses onlu on transfer of Japanese in learning Chinese. Japanese and Chinese share similarities in phonetics, lexicology, syntax, and other areas.However, there is not a linear relationship between positive transfer and similarities of the two languages, neither a linear relationship between negative transfer and differences of the two languages. Maximizing positive transfer and minimizinf negative transfer of Japanese in students' Chinese learning depend on teachers' linguistic awareness of both Japanese and Chinese. Therefore, applying the methodology of comparative linguistics to foreign language teaching raises students' attention to the similarities and differences between their native language and the target language. Thus, it contributes to both positive transfer and efficient learning.
