The Principle of Temporal Sequence is a typical order in Chinese while it is not in English. When it comes to temporal location, while English uses suffixes to mark the temporal relationship, Chinese expresses it by the lexical approach and context. Therefore, it is a worthwhile endeavor to explore the temporal expressions of English learners of Chinese. The present study based itself on the theoretical framework of temporal advancement advocated by Smith and Erbaugh (2009) in conjunction with Grounding Theory in order to investigate temporal expression variations in the writing of Chinese native speakers and English learners of Chinese. Three research questions have been formulated in this study: First, what are the differences between Chinese native speakers and English learners of Chinese in their use of time nouns for temporal orientation? Second, what are the differences between these two language groups in their use of overt and zero forms for time advancement? Third, what are the differences between the two groups in their interactive use of temporal advancement and topic chain? The data of the present study were collected from Chinese native speakers and English learners of Chinese. For the native data, 10 Chinese narrative writings were chosen from two travel books. As for the learner data, 18 learners were recruited from various universities in Taiwan. The learners were further categorized into three proficiency levels: Six intermediate, six intermediate high, and six advanced. The results of the analysis of this yield three major findings: First, the English learners of Chinese used more time nouns than Chinese native speakers. Additionally, the learners were not aware of the fact that Chinese time compound “Zhe4”could be used to express non-deictic meaning and refer to time in the past. Second, there was no significant difference between the two language groups in their use of overt and zero forms of temporal advancement. However, the learners were prone to use overt forms for temporal advancement, but they used much less regulative complements than the native speakers. Third, in the narrative writing of Chinese native speakers, more than half of the temporal advancement sentences overlapped with topic chains, but no such phenomenon was observed in those of the English learners. In the end, pedagogical implications were provided based on the results of this study.時間推進時間定位敘述體話題鏈temporal advancementtemporal orientationnarrativestopic chain
