Abstract

It have been known that Daegu dialect does not have /ㅆ/ as a phoneme. However, it seems that /ㅅ/ and /ㅆ/ are phonemically distinctive in younger generation. In this paper, we investigate realization of /ㅅ/ and /ㅆ/ of Daegu dialect in their 20's, and compare them with /ㅅ/ and /ㅆ/ of Seoul dialect in their 20's. The result of this study showed that /ㅅ/ and /ㅆ/ were not significantly different between Daegu and Seoul dialect except pitch. Therefore, in Daegu dialect /ㅅ/ and /ㅆ/ are phonemically distinctive in younger generation like Seoul dialect's /ㅅ/ and /ㅆ/ are.
