  • 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.

When I finished this dissertation in Buffalo, New York, eight years later, it was a cool and pleasant summer. To finish this dissertation, I owe thanks for many people’s help and encouragement. I would like to express my gratitude for their support in completing this dissertation. First of all, my greatest thanks go to my adviser, Robert D. Van Valin, Jr. for his helpful suggestions and guidance, not only scholarly but alos personal. My research is based on his Role and Reference Grammar, and my interest in many of the topics in the dissertation is completely inspired by his work. Without his encouragement, I would never have started or finished this dissertation. I express here all my gratitude for the various kinds of help he gave me. I also wish to thank Matthew S. Dryer and David A. Zubin, who acted as committee members for the dissertation. Professor Dryer’s guidance and suggestions for earlier drafts have especially improved my arguments. He shared his insights and knowledge with me, and these were particularily helpful in the chapter on relative clauses.

  • 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.

My modest and humble “thank you” belongs to the teachers from the Japanese section of the Asian department at Palacký University for the knowledge of Japanese; to the members of the English department who have supported me in my enthusiasm for linguistics; to the teachers at Utsunomiya University, among other things, also for the knowledge of Korean; to my friends and especially to my family who have helped me in many other ways. Above all, my deepest gratitude belongs to my supervisor Prof. Joseph Emonds especially for his permanent support and valuable advice that helped me to successfully finish this bachelor thesis. Abstract This thesis deals with morphological and syntactic properties of Serial Verb Constructions (SVCs). The SVCs can be found across languages from different parts of the world, especially in Bantu languages in Central Africa, and some Asian languages. However, there are also languages (e.g. Germanic ones) that seem to lack these constructions created by the process of serialization.

  • The Korean Causative-Passive Correlation Revisited*
    The Korean Causative-Passive Correlation Revisited* Jae-Hoon Yeon O. Introduction During the last thirty years, causative and passive constructions have been studied intensively from both the morphological and syntactic points of view. However, linguists have usually studied these two constructions separately, and have only recently begun to study their interrelationship. Cross-linguistically, the causative-passive correlation is less well-known, despite the fact that in some languages (e.g. Korean, Manchu, Evenki, Even etc.) 1 causative and passive constructions share the same verbal morphology. In Korean linguistics as well, this interrelationship has been relatively overlooked, since it was first observed and described by Lee. S. O. (1970, 1972). The causative - passive correlation has begun to attract linguists' at­ tention again recently (cf. Lee (1986), Park (1986, 1987), Song (1987), * An earlier version of this paper was presented at the 15th conference of the AKSE (Association of Korean Studies in Europe), held in Paris, France, from 22-26 March, 1991, and it is to appear in (Eoneohag) Vo1.13. published by the Dept. of Linguistics, Seoul National University. This is the revised and more elaborated version of the earlier one. I am grateful to Prof. T. Bynon. and Dr. J. R. P. King at SOAS for their comments. I also thank Prof. Sang­ Oak Lee. of Seoul National University for reading an earlier draft of this paper. 1 The passive in some Tungusic languages is derived from the causative. In southern Tungusic language Manchu, the suffix "-bu-" serves both as a caus­ ative and passive marker (see Haspelmath (1990: 48».
