A Study on the Intonation of Korean Speakers in English Sentence Adverbials -Focused on Message-Oriented Adverbials-

영어의 문장부사에 나타난 한국인의 억양특성 분석 -Message-oriented 부사를 중심으로-

The purpose of this study is to investigate the intonation of Korean speakers in English sentence adverbials. The intonation of English sentence adverbials is realized by its syntactic and semantic meaning. Many Korean speakers realize falling or stylized high-rising intonation instead of fall-rising in attitudinal adverbials. In addition, Korean students don't realize deaccenting in likelihood adverbials. These results suggest that the intonation patterns in current English textbooks are not sufficient for English intonation education at school.
