Abstract

Acupuncture is a traditional treatment from China with historical roots going back centuries. It uses the method of fine needles inserted into the skin at acupoints located along the body's meridians. The main concepts that govern this treatment are Yin and Yang, as well as the flow of vital energy known as Qi. The acupuncture treatment method was first discovered in China in ancient times and has been continuously developed. Today, acupuncture has become one of the standard therapies in China, along with herbs and massage techniques. Acupuncture treatment has preventive and curative purposes and is considered more economical and practical in the healthcare system. The concept of Yin and Yang is essential in acupuncture treatment. It reflects the balance and duality of the human body and nature. Acupuncture points are considered to have Yin or Yang properties, and needles on these points aim to restore the balance of energy in the body. In addition, acupuncture treatment also aims to optimize the flow of Qi, the vital energy that flows throughout the body. When the flow of Qi is obstructed or unbalanced, this can lead to health problems. Acupuncture today is still beneficial as an adjunctive treatment method for pain, primarily when conventional medicine does not provide adequate results. This research aims to analyze how Qi, Yin, and Yang affect the healing process in the human body. In this research, the literature study method is used to explore Qi, Yin, and Yang in the context of acupuncture treatment. The results of this research help us better understand how the concepts of Yin, Yang, and Qi are applied in acupuncture treatment and how they work in the human body.

Abstract

This study examines the phenomenon of confusing vocabulary among Indonesian Chinese learners in the process of learning Chinese vocabulary. Through testing and analysis of homographs, homophones, near-synonyms, and words with different lexical features, it was found that the confusion rates for homographs and homophones are relatively high, while there is also considerable confusion with near-synonyms and words with different lexical features. The research results indicate that the main causes of the confusion phenomenon among Indonesian learners include negative transfer from their native language, different collocation habits, unclear semantic differences, and unclear lexical features. In response to these issues, the study proposes strengthening vocabulary teaching, providing more context, enhancing collocation training, and increasing explanations of lexical features to help improve the effectiveness of Chinese language teaching.

Abstract

Today advances in technology and human intelligence have made many countries flock to increase their soft power in the international arena. The Chinese government is no exception, actively trying to increase soft power through various programs. One of these efforts can be seen with the establishment of the Confucius Institute. China founded the Confucius Institute to promote Chinese language and culture abroad. These efforts include spreading the Mandarin language, holding cultural exhibitions, and collaborating academically with various countries. This research aims to analyze the Confucius Institute's role in increasing China's soft power. This research uses a qualitative approach by collecting and evaluating data through supporting literature, including academic journal articles and investing news. The Confucius Institute effectively increases the general public's understanding of China. However, there are concerns that Confucius Institutes exist to influence the political views and foreign policies of host countries. Overall, the Confucius Institute is essential to China’s cultural diplomacy efforts, but its approach must maintain a balance between cultural promotion and sensitivity to host country contexts.
