Abstract: This paper demonstrated findings about loan words in Modern Chinese based on the statistic analysis of “Commonly Used Words List for HSK Test”(1992)as the sample. Taking 8 authoritative loan words studies like “Dictionary of Loan Words in Chinese” etc. as “identification proof”, adopting unified loan words classification and identification principles, and approaching from a broad loan word perspective, the research made an exhaustive identification of all possible etymology and borrowing style in the sample and sorted out 989 loan words. The paper described loan words distribution in terms of frequency level, etymology, part of speech, features of borrowing style, syllable / character number, etc.

Key words: loan words, commonly used Modern Chinese words, borrowing style, identification proof, distribution
