본 연구는 관광 관련 서비스 분야에 필요한 특수 목적 중국어(CSP) 교육과정 개 발을 위한 첫 단계로 AI 데이터 기반으로 구축된 구어체 병렬 코퍼스에서 CSP 어휘 리스트를 선정하여 용어색인과 어휘다발(n-gram)등을 분석하였다. 어휘리스트 어휘 규모는 토큰 수 총 304, 228개와 타입 수 17, 286개로 나타났으며, 어휘 누적 증가율 을 분석하면 2-Gram과 3-Gram의 어휘다발이 가장 많았고, 실무 현장에서 가장 많 이 활용되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 구축된 특수 목적 관광 중국어 어휘 리스트는 실제 교육 자료로 제공하여 관광 중국어 학습자와 교수자에게 실용적으로 사용될 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.
By adopting a usage-based approach to language acquisition, this study investigated the emergence and development of L2 constructional knowledge. A total of 19 English verb-argument constructions (VACs) and their associated verbs were extracted from a learner corpus and three verbal fluency tasks, each conducted in L1 and L2 English and L1 Korean. We compared verb usage in the target VACs across proficiency levels between the L1 and L2 groups and between data types for VAC productivity and verb-VAC associations. The results identified three stages through which Korean learners’ VAC knowledge develops in L2 English: emerging through the frequent use of a few general verbs, expanding the range of verbs associated with a VAC to include more specific and prototypical verb types, and then developing them into a creative constructional schema. Moreover, we determined similarities between L1 and L2 English VAC knowledge in higher L2 proficiency levels, as well as L1 Korean influences related to L1 typology and L1 collocational transfer.
Previous studies on the English conative alternation have resorted to semantic constraints like “attempt”, “motion”, and “contact” on verbs and have taken Levin’s (1993: 41-42) verb classification about the alternation for granted. This study, based on authentic corpus data extracted from BYU-BNC, shows that simple semantic-constraint-based approaches are insufficient and Levin’s (1993) classification is problematic. In particular, this study shows that the verb classes that participate in the conative alternation in English can be classified in terms of entailments about change, motion, and contact and that some classes and subclasses exhibit idiosyncratic properties which cannot be captured by the previous approaches and Levin’s (1993) classification.
