Abstract

At present, there are few eye movement studies on Bilingual Reading of ethnic minorities. This paper combs the eye movement studies of Tibetan, Mongolian, and Uygur reading mother tongue and Chinese, and puts forward the future research ideas: To investigate the reverse reading of Chinese texts by Uygur native speakers, and the reading perceptual span of Mongolian reading of Mongolian primary school students.
