To transform old words into new words is a very efficient mode of word derivation in contemporary Chinese, which mainly involves the transformation of word form and the transformation of meaning. In the process of transforming the old words language users have created a lot of new words that are very novel in form or meaning based on the relationship between Chinese characters in terms of sound, shape and meaning or the structural features of Chinese characters. This paper lists more than 130 new appellations including sound-based words, form-based words, meaning-based words and words produced by changing the structure of Chinese characters, names the ways how old words transform into new words as JieYinFuXing, XieYinFuYi, BieJieFuYi, FanBeiFuYi, GaiZiBianXing and describes the transformation process of these words. These lexical phenomenons reflect some language psychology such as pursuing new differences, playing jokes and mental association. They have some impacts on the lexical system of contemporary Chinese as they open up new ways for the generation and change of contemporary Chinese words, they supplement the word-making methods and lead to some unconventional combinations in contemporary Chinese lexis. This paper intends to further clarify the important role of Chinese characters in word creation and word development, and deepen the understanding of Chinese Character study and contemporary Chinese lexicology.

본고는 한·중 감각어 중 하나인 시각어에 대한 원형 의미와 의미 확장 그리고 특 성에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 그중 한국어의 시각어 중 토박이말을 대상으로 주요 시 각 동사와 시각 형용사를 살펴보고, 이에 상응하는 중국어의 시각 동사와 시각 형용 사를 살펴보고 비교 분석하고자 한다. 한국어의 주요 시각 동사로는 ‘보다’를, 시각 형용사로는 ‘밝다·어둡다, 희다·검다·붉다·푸르다·누르다’를, 이에 대한 중국어의 시각 동사는 ‘看’을, 시각 형용사는 ‘亮, 暗, 白, 黑, 红, 蓝, 黄’을 살펴보고 비교 분석 하고 자한다.

The research aims to explore the Chinese character “jì (既)” in pre-Qin period. The research focuses on the font change of jì (既) in pre-Qin period. Throughout the discussion, the understanding of jì (既), including of different fonts, such as , , can be known. We can know that the pronunciation of jì (既) has a close relationship with qì (氣), according to the use of related characters, for example, ài (㤅), jì (䊠), xì (餼) and so on. Talking about the meaning, there are seven meanings of jì (既), such as finish eating, end, whole, already, since, jì ér (既而, soon afterwards), jì yǐ (既以, farther), xì (餼, foodstuff). The results will be beneficial to facilitate understanding of academic writing materials and expand Warring States research in other aspects.

The purpose of focus-on-form instruction is to attract learners' attention effectively to linguistic forms of the target language during a meaning-focused activity. However, there is always competition of learners' attention between to form and meaning due to the fact that human attentional resources are limited. Task difficulty is identified asa critical factor which depletes learners' attention during language activities by many researchers. The purpose of the present study is to examine how task difficulty affects the allocation of learners' attention between form and meaning during different types of focus-on-form instruction, which are Textual input enhancement and Dictogloss. The results showed that learners' attention to form during the instruction was not affected by the task difficulty, while their attention to meaning was negatively affected by it. it means that focus-on-form instruction needs to be designed appropriately based on learners' level of language proficiency in order for it not to be focus-on-formS instruction which focus only on linguistic forms separately from meaning.

This paper aims to identify the meaning of architectural form of the East and the West. Ordinarily, we know the visual differences of architectural form between the two cultural families, and the technical reasons of such differences. However, the East and the West have their own views of architectural form that are derived from their own views of architecture, and again the views of architecture are rooted in their own views of the world. The paper maintains a comparative stance between the two cultures in analyzing the different concepts of architectural form, and employ the ideas of 'Form(形象)' and 'Energy-Form(氣形)' as a kind of representative concept of the two views of architectural form. It is discussed that the idea of Form pursued the realization of ultimate substance which is less materialistic but more ideal., while, the idea of Energy-Form pursued the realization of oneness and health through mutual interaction between man, architecture and nature. Architectural form in the West has been the purposeful expression of human ideal, while in the East, it was an expediential device for better energy condition. It seems important to understand such differences of the meaning of architectural form between the East and the West, since, in present time, we tend to think that the Western conception of architectural form is the only possible one. But it is not generally known that the Western conception of form has very particular background reason of its own which is unique to Western culture, and on the other hand, the nature of East Asian conception of architectural form is generally unknown.

The present study investigated how the native English speaking teachers (NEST hereafter) were teaching Korean children learning English as a foreign language (EFL) in a private language school. Specifically, it examined how their NESTs dealt with the dimensions of form, meaning, and use of language. A detailed analysis of the video- taped EFL classes targeted for Korean elementary school students taught by NESTs revealed that the teachers relied heavily on textbooks and their intuitions of the target language rather than facilitative teaching techniques. The implication of the present study is that there should be more syste- matized theory-based methods taken by NESTs to deal more effectively with beginning EFL learners in terms of the ways of presenting language data and to engage students in diverse learning activities. In addition, this paper argues that there is a strong need for NESTs to be trained as professional language teachers and to be equipped with teaching techniques and skills to customize the needs of Korean elementary school EFL learners.
