외국어로서의 한국어교육에 대한 언어학적 접근

Heo, Yong. 2010. A Linguistic Approach to the Korean Language Education as a Foreign Language. The Language and Culture 6-1: 285-307. This paper aims to offer the direction in which Korean language education, based on Korean linguistics and general linguistics, should strive to achieve. It is important to recognize the markedness of the language in question based on universality or universal grammar and linguistic typology. We can approach universality from two points of view. The first is the typological universal approach based on Greenberg and the second is the universal grammar approach based on Chomsky. While these two approaches may differ in some aspects, they both search for common aspects of all languages. In sum, they are in agreement in the fact that they both seek to find absolute universality and universal tendencies. Linguistic typology can also be approached from this perspective. Hence, linguistic typology is important to Korean language teachers. This paper discusses phonetics and phonology, syntactic aspects of the Korean language based on universality, parameters and typology. (Hankuk University of Foreign Studies)
