This paper focus on the influence of positive transfer and negative transfer between English and Chinese by analyzing three aspects: sound, vocabulary and grammar. The purpose of the paper is to promote the positive transfer and conquer the negative transfer on the basis of analogical analysis, and finally improve English learning. Key words: language transfer; positive transfer; negative transfer; English learning Introduction 1.1 Definition of language transfer The origins of the term “transfer” go back to Behaviorism and its view is that the mother tongue habits influence learning of the foreign language habits. Although it was later discredited, the notion of transfer has been revived again and remains one of the most fundamental in foreign language acquisition research. Transfer in terminology of foreign language research has been giving rise to much controversy. Odlin(2001) assumed that transfer is not 1) A consequence of habit form action; 2) Interference; 3) A falling back on the mother tongue. And transfer is not always mother tongue influence. He offers the working of substratum transfer as a basis for his own thoughtful treatment of such influence: transfer is the influence resulting from similarities and differences between one language and any other language that has been previously (and perhaps imperfectly) acquired. This working definition, although somewhat vague, provides an adequate basis for the materials to be deserved discussion. Language transfer is also called cross linguistic influence.
