However, the number of KFL learners has started to grow rapidly since the latter half of the 1970s for various reasons, such as the increas- ing visibility of South Korea on the international stage because of its fast economic development and its democratization over the last four decades, the continuing support from the Korean government regarding the expan- sion of the Korean Studies program abroad, the growing importance of the North Korean issues in contemporary global-political affairs, and the recent growth of the Korean-American population in the USA. In the USA alone, the number of colleges that offer KFL courses was merely ten in 1975. However, that number has grown to over 130 in the early 2000s. A few universities, including the University of Hawaii at Manoa and the University of California at Los Angeles, have offered Korean language BA, MA, and PhD programs. The number of Korean commu- nity schools (for K-12 Korean and culture education) grew from seven in 1975 to 832 in 1996, and to over 900 in the early 2000s. In addition, over 20 public high schools have recently started to teach Korean. The Korean language boom is not confined within the US private sector or university settings but is found in the government sector as well. For example, US government institutes such as the Defense Language Institute, the Foreign Service Institute, and the Central Intelligence Agency provide intensive Korean language training. In recent decades the number of KFL textbooks for English-speaking KFL classroom use has steadily increased. However, the number of KFL study materials intended for a self-study purpose is still relatively scarce. Furthermore, to date there has been no published KFL grammar workbook that specifically aims at providing supplemental grammar explanations and exercises in a single volume. Basic Korean: A Grammar and Workbook and its sister volume, Intermediate Korean, are intended to meet that need. The book focuses on providing an accessible reference grammar explanation and related exercises 99780415774871_A01.indd780415774871_A 01.ind d vii vii 77/4/2008/4/2008 11:43:04:43:04 PPMM viii Preface in a single volume. It is designed for independent English-speaking adult KFL learners who intend to maintain and strengthen their knowledge of essential Korean grammar and for classroom-based learners who are look- ing for supplemental grammar explanations and practices. Consequently, this book differs from existing KFL materials whose primary purpose is to help KFL learners acquire four language skills, such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing, as well as cultural knowledge. The layout of this book also differs from those of existing KFL mater- ials. For instance, a typical KFL textbook chapter may include model dialogues, followed by vocabulary lists, grammar explanations, cultural notes, and exercises. In contrast, following the pattern of other Grammar Workbooks of the Routledge series, every unit of Basic Korean focuses on presenting jargon-free and concise grammar explanations, followed by relevant grammar exercises. This book has 25 units, and it does not take a functional-situational approach in grouping and/or sequencing target grammatical points. Rather it sequences and covers grammatical points according to their grammatical categories (e.g., nouns, pronouns, particles, numbers, verbs, adjectives, and so on), so that learners can use the book for reference material as well as for practice material. The exercises at the end of each unit are designed primarily to reinforce the target grammatical points. All Korean entries are presented in Hangul (the Korean alphabet) with English translations to facilitate understanding. Accordingly, it requires that learners familiarize themselves with Hangul in Unit 1, before going on to the rest of the book. In addition, when translating Korean entries into English, efforts were made to reflect the Korean meaning as closely as possible. Consequently, some learners may feel certain English transla- tions do not reflect typical English usages. However, the direct translation approach was employed for pedagogical purposes. In writing this book, I have been fortunate to have the assistance and support of many people. I would like to thank my colleagues in the Department of East Asian Studies at the University at Albany, State University of New York, who were supportive of this project. I am grateful to anonymous reviewers for their constructive and valuable comments. I would like to express sincere gratitude to Sophie Oliver for initially encouraging this project and to the editorial and production teams at Routledge, Andrea Hartill, Ursula Mallows, Samantha Vale Noya, and Andrew Watts for their advice and support throughout the process. My thanks also go to Lisa Blackwell for her careful and thoughtful copy-editing. Finally, as always, my special thanks go to my wife, Isabel, who, with her optimism and encouragement, makes it possible for me to do what I really love to do.

  • A Study on How to Teach Tense to Chinese Korean Language Learners
    Pan-Pacific Association of Applied Linguistics 15(1), 221-234 A Study on How to Teach Tense to Chinese Korean Language Learners Sun-Min Lee Namseoul University Lee, S. M. (2011). A study on how to teach tense to Chinese Korean language learners. Journal of Pan-Pacific Association of Applied Linguistics, 15(1), 221-234. Presently it is hard to find a thesis which have presented the teaching plan on how to teach the tense to Chinese learners on the spot of learning and even the textbooks in classes cover the subject of tense only in the medium or high level. The author considers that the learners' mistakes on the subject of tense are apt to be fossilized, if they are not corrected in the beginning stage. Thus, the author intends to present the exercises on 'tense', as a means to teach the learners in the basic or low intermediate step, in Chapter 3 of this thesis. Considering on the basis of the properties of Chinese language, the present tense of Korean does not seem to be so difficult to Chinese learners that it was decided to be excluded from the subject. Therefore, the subject of this research would be limited to the past tense and the future tense out of the trisected tenses of present, past and future. The reason for the exclusion of present tense will be explained in detail in the following Chapter 2. Key Words: Chinese Korean language learners, Korean tense, tense teach 1 Preface The grammatic concept of 'tense' in Korean does not exist in the language of Chinese1.

    Porting Grammars between Typologically Similar Languages: Japanese to Korean Roger KIM Mary DALRYMPLE Palo Alto Research Center Dept. of Computer Science 3333 Coyote Hill Rd. King's College London Palo Alto, CA 94304 USA Strand, London WC2R 2LS UK [email protected] [email protected] Ronald M. KAPLAN Tracy Holloway KING Palo Alto Research Center Palo Alto Research Center 3333 Coyote Hill Rd. 3333 Coyote Hill Rd. Palo Alto, CA 94304 USA Palo Alto, CA 94304 USA [email protected] [email protected] Abstract We report on a preliminary investigation of the dif®culty of converting a grammar of one lan- guage into a grammar of a typologically similar language. In this investigation, we started with the ParGram grammar of Japanese and used that as the basis for a grammar of Korean. The re- sults are encouraging for the use of grammar porting to bootstrap new grammar development. 1 Introduction The Parallel Grammar project (ParGram) is an international collaboration aimed at producing broad-cov- erage computational grammars for a variety of languages (Butt et al., 1999; Butt et al., 2002). The gram- mars (currently of English, French, German, Japanese, Norwegian, and Urdu) are written in the frame- work of Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG) (Kaplan and Bresnan, 1982; Dalrymple, 2001), and they are constructed using a common engineering and high-speed processing platform for LFG grammars, the XLE (Maxwell and Kaplan, 1993). These grammars, as do all LFG grammars, assign two levels of syntac- tic representation to the sentences of a language: a super®cial phrase structure tree (called a constituent structure or c-structure) and an underlying matrix of features and values (the functional structure or f- structure).

  • The Koreas in International News Richard John Murray BA Hons, MJ
    Constructions of Good and Evil: The Koreas in International News Richard John Murray BA Hons, MJ A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 The School of Communication and Arts Abstract As part of the post-disruption news landscape this thesis investigates the construction (Berger & Luckmann, 1966; Couldry and Hepp, 2017) of North Korea and South Korea in international news. I argue the digital disruption of the news industry has not only transformed the delivery of news but also the practice of crafting stories on the Koreas. Taking Picard’s (2014) Twilight or New Dawn of Journalism thesis as a starting point, this thesis takes Picard’s post-disruption newsroom model and applies it to international news. Under this conception of news as an industry, newsrooms have become the site of the curation and distribution of news rather than a site of news gathering and production. Picard terms this the “service mode of journalism”. The scholarly practice of situating news framing research of this nature in a newsroom is rendered outdated when viewed through the lens of two digital migrant news organisations: news.com.au and The Guardian. Despite the changes in the role and function of the newsroom, journalism as a field of scholarship has been slow to respond. Within framing theory and methodology scholarship there is a persistence in applying outdated methods of newsroom ethnography in keeping with the classic studies in the tradition (Tuchman, 1978; Gans, 1979; Gitlan, 1980; Gamson, 1988; Entman, 1991, 1993; Reese, 2005). This thesis responds to the transformation of the role of the newsroom by moving beyond the newsroom and into the network where the stories on Korea are constructed.

  • Linguistic Landscape for Korean Learning: a Survey of Perception, Attitude, and Practice of Korean Beginners at a Korean University
    ISSN 1798-4769 Journal of Language Teaching and Research, Vol. 11, No. 6, pp. 956-961, November 2020 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17507/jltr.1106.12 Linguistic Landscape for Korean Learning: A Survey of Perception, Attitude, and Practice of Korean Beginners at a Korean University Wenjin Qi Yuncheng University, Yuncheng, China Heng Zhang Nanchang Normal University, Nanchang, China Nadezda Sorokina Woosong University, Daejeon, South Korea Abstract—This study aimed to investigate the perception of, attitude to and practice of linguistic landscape for Korean learning among the international Korean beginners. A questionnaire as a self-assessment instrument was given to a group of 41 international university students with lower Korean language proficiency studying in a Korean university. The descriptive statistics indicated that for perception, although they pay attention to English the most, they could also notice Korean and Romanized Korean on the linguistic landscape (LL). They are positive to the LL as authentic input for Korean learning in terms of attitude. What is more, they could use the LL to enhance their Korean learning particularly in practicing pronunciation and enriching vocabulary, with relatively less practice on grammar checking. This study attested the previous studies concerning the LL as an authentic source for language learning on the one hand, and on the other hand, it showed that even without guidance from the teachers in formal settings, the students could also spontaneously use the LL to learn the Korean language in natural settings.
