Abstract: This thesis discusses a common language phenomenon: Chinglish. Firstly，it discusses the features of Chinglish from four levels: speech sound, vocabulary, grammars, and pragmatics. Then the thesis further discusses the causes of Chinglish from phonetic level, lexical level, syntactic level, and textual level. It is found that Chinglish is systematic in its features and causes, which hopefully can be a prelude to further studies of how to best avoid Chinglish in the long run.
Key words: Chinglish; feature; cause
