The study attempts to investigate how Korean native adult speakers comprehend the distributive function of extrinsic plural marker -tul(EPM) attached to different verb types. It also examines how the three verb types, each of which can evoke a distributive interpretation a collective interpretation and both of the interpretations, influence the sentence interpretation in terms of distributivity. The inconsistency of the previous analyses on the distributivity needs to be verified to shade light on Korean native adult speakers’ knowledge for the extrinsic plural marking from the experimental approach. To do so, the study employed Translation Task, in which the participants were asked to read a story that ends with a sentence to depict a situation. The last sentence was manipulated either to contain EPM attached to three different verb types or not to contain it. And then they were instructed to select any possible translations for the sentence among three choices that correspond to a distributive interpretation, a collective interpretation and both of the interpretations respectively. The results showed that Korean native adult speakers assigned more distributive interpretations to the sentences with EPM than sentences without it. It was also found that there were differences between verb types in evoking distributivity. However, the sentences with EPM also allowed for collective interpretations, which implies that it is not an obligatory distributor but plays a role of a distributive facilitator in the sentence interpretation.

본 연구는 중국인 한국어 학습자들을 대상으로 조사 ‘이/가’와 ‘을/를’의 오류 유형과 오류를 범하는 원인을 살펴보고 교육 과정에서 주의해야할 점을 논의하였다. 오류 통계의 결과 ‘이/가’와 ‘을/를’의 단계별 오류율은 각각 ‘고급 > 중급 > 초급’, ‘초급 > 고급 > 중급’의 순으로 나 타났다. 오류 유형 비율은 모두 ‘대치 > 누락 > 첨가’의 순으로 나타났다. 각 단계에서 각 유형의 오류가 나타난 원인이 다르지만 전체적으로 보면 주로 모국어인 중국어의 간섭으로서의 언어 전이, 문법 규칙 과잉적용, 과잉 일반화의 원인으로 나타났다. 또 학습자가 심리상의 회피 전략, 학습 환경도 학습자 오류에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

This study deals with Korean learners' acquisition of English negatives. According to previous research, learners of English pass through a stage that demonstrates the characteristics of learners' interlanguage. Using a learner corpus (KELC), we show that Korean learners progress through several developmental stages before they master English negation. In addition, the errors made at each developmental stage reflect learners' knowledge of syntactic representation in terms of functional categories. Specifically, at the beginner level, the learners do not use auxiliaries at all. As they move to the intermediate level at which the functional category begins to be used, they start using auxiliaries in front of the negator. However, their outcomes are undermined with inflection errors either on the auxiliary or on the thematic verb. Finally, at the advanced level, the inflection errors disappear although still the present tense dominates where the past tense is required. This developmental pattern is in accord with the stages reported in the literature and the maturation of syntactic representation (i.e., functional categories).

벼리】이 연구의 목적은 영어권 학습자의 비음동화 발음 실태를 살 펴보고 오류 분석을 통한 비음동화 발음 교육 방안을 마련하는데 있 다. 비음동화 환경이 포함된 문장을 영어권 학습자에게 제시하고 발 화를 녹음하여 분석하였다. 녹음된 자료를 바탕으로 환경별 비음동화 발음 오류를 분석하였다. 오류 분석 결과를 바탕으로 통합형 한국어 비음동화 교육방안을 마련하였다.

This study examines whether formulaic sequences might be stored and retrieved as wholes in a holistic fashion rather than analytically. Another goal is to see whether the processing of L2 sequences is affected by L2 proficiency, grammaticality and length of expressions. Grammaticality judgment task was conducted and data was collected from Korean L2 English learners of low- and intermediate-level of proficiency. First, results showed that formulaic sequences were responded more rapidly and accurately than nonformulaic sequences. This provides additional support for the claim that formulaic sequences are stored and processed as single lexical units even in L2 speakers' mental lexicon. Second, the formulaicity effect was constant at both levels, indicating that formulaic sequences are acquired and processed from the early stage of L2 development. Finally, it was found that grammatical sequences were processed more quickly and accurately than ungrammatical ones and that shorter expressions were judged faster and more accurately than longer ones, implying more efficient processing and less memory load for shorter and grammatical expressions. Building on the results in the present study, we propose a formal account for the quicker and accurate processing of formulaic sequences with reference to psycholinguistic model and processing constraints.

This study examines the production of English word-final codas by Korean speakers. First, we investigate how Korean learners phonetically realize English word final codas. The second question explores what factors exert an influence on production type. Results show that Korean speakers' production most favors the released type and then prefers the release and vowel epenthesis type and the unreleased type. This finding indicates that Korean learners are making progress toward targetlike production while retaining the transfer from Korean syllable structures. Finally, their production type significantly differs by the number of codas, grammatical condition, preceding vowel, and following linguistic environment.
