  • The purpose of this study is to examine aspects and causes of the change and disappearance in the Gangneung dialect vocabulary about costume. A typical example of linguistic factors that influence the change of costume vocabulary is competition with the standard language. However, costume as culture has a more powerful effect than linguistic factor. For example, the following factors lead to the disappearance: the disappearance of the referent, the inherent characteristics of the costume, the introduction of the new culture, and the change in values about costume.

  • 한국어에는 주격 표지를 가진 명사가 두 번 이상 나타나는 구문이 자주 나타난다. 이러한 구문을 주격 중출 구문이라고 한다. 주격 중출 구문은 크게 부분-전체 구문, 양화사 유동 구문, 그리고 심리 술어 구문으로 나누어진다. 본고에서는 부분-전체 구문과 양화사 유동 구문은 함수-논항 관계를 이용하여 분석하고, 심리 술어 구문은 의미역할과 자리 이동으로 설명한다. 이러한 것은 의미적 측면과 통사적 측면을 함께 고려한 것으로 좀 더 일관성 있는 설명을 위한 접근이라 하겠다.

  • The informative or important entities in utterances are focused and the focused items are usually accompanied by changes in phonetic manifestation. Phonetic realizations triggered by focus include changes of tonal contours as well as segmental strengthening. Focus in Korean is characterized by new phrase initiation, dephrasing, and initial tone contour with an enlarged pitch range in addition to segmentally lengthened initial segment. Focusing on the prosodic cues which play an important role in delivering the speakers' intention, this study aims to find out what intonational characteristics of Korean focus are realized by English learners of Korean. The English learners are divided into two groups according to their fluency in Korean, and the differences in focus realization between each group are discussed. Furthermore, the phonological and phonetic realizations of focus by English learners of Korean are compared to those by Korean native speakers. The results of this study yields two suggestions for Korean intonation education of L2 learners. First, the comparison between the two speaker groups can give better understanding in how and why the Korean intonation of English speakers is different from that of Koreans. Second, each phonological and phonetic characteristic of focus realization can weigh differently and its realization provides a criterion for evaluation of L2 Korean proficiency.

  • There are tries to unite through consilience in many fields. Interdisciplinary research is an instance of those. Linguistic studies called linguistic informatics or quantitative linguistics is a field of interdisciplinary research related with statistics linguists have studied chiefly statistics and linguistics. In the statistical aspect, there is need to supplement somewhat of the result of researches by linguists. This study shows statistical method can supplement insufficient objectivity in linguistic studies, and examines the way to raise a degree of completion of interdisciplinary research on statistics and linguistics. This study also shows an introduction and application of the statistical method can be useful for the deduction of objective linguistic information in linguistic studies.

  • Acoustic and aerodynamic characteristics of Cheju consonants were examined with the focus on the well-known three-way distinction among stops (i.e., lenis, fortis, aspirated) and the two-way distinction between sand s*. Acoustic parameters examined for the stops included VOT, relative stop burst energy, Fo at the vowel onset, H1-H2, and H1-F2 at the vowel onset. For the fricatives s and s*, acoustic parameters were fricative duration, Fo, centroid of the fricative noise, RMS energy of the frication, H1-H2 and Hl-F2 at the onset of the following vowel. In investigating aerodynamics, intraoral pressure and oral flow were included for the bilabial stops. Results indicate that, although Cheju and Korean are not mutually intelligible, acoustic and aerodynamic properties of Cheju consonants are very similar in every respect to those of the standard Korean. Among other findings there are three crucial points worth recapitulating. First, stops are systematically differentiated by the voice quality of the following vowel. Second, stops are also differentiated by aerodynamic mechanisms. The aspirated and fortis stops are similar in supralaryngeal articulation, but employ a different relation between intraoral pressure and flow. Finally, our study suggests that the fricative s is better categorized as 'lenis' than as 'aspirated' in terms of its phonetic realization.

Critical Discourse Analysis of '5.18' in 'Honam' and 'Yeongnam' Local Newspapers by Using Corpus (코퍼스를 이용한 '호남'과 '영남' 지역신문에서의 '5.18'에 대한 비판적 담화분석)

  • In this paper, newspaper articles were collected through '5.18' keyword search results and the news corpus was constructed from the collected data. In the articles of local newspapers 'Honam' and 'Yeongnam', the ideological differences regarding '5.18' were investigated. The ideological differences of local newspaper discourse through objective figures was analyzed.. The subjects of the newspaper articles, the frequency of nouns and predicates were analyzed. The use and meaning of the intended vocabulary were examined. As a result of analyzing the title of the newspaper article, the discourse written in 'Honam' emphasized the necessity of re - recognition of 5.18. In both regions, the word "Gwangju" is often used. However, 'Gwangju' in 'Honam' newspaper means spiritual space, not physical space. In Honam regional newspapers, there are many vocabularies describing the events such as 'shoot' and 'fire', this calls for recollection and memory of '5.18'. In the analysis of newspaper discourse, the analysis of the contrast between the local newspapers was very insignificant, but, this study was conducted to analyze the discourse among local newspapers.

  • Detection of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) based on speech has relied on predefined feature sets due to their ease of use and the capabilities of speech analysis. However, clinical impressions may not be adequately captured due to the broad range and the large number of features included. This paper demonstrates that the knowledge-driven speech features (KDSFs) specifically tailored to the speech traits of ASD are more effective and efficient for detecting speech of ASD children from that of children with typical development (TD) than a predefined feature set, extended Geneva Minimalistic Acoustic Standard Parameter Set (eGeMAPS). The KDSFs encompass various speech characteristics related to frequency, voice quality, speech rate, and spectral features, that have been identified as corresponding to certain of their distinctive attributes of them. The speech dataset used for the experiments consists of 63 ASD children and 9 TD children. To alleviate the imbalance in the number of training utterances, a data augmentation technique was applied to TD children's utterances. The support vector machine (SVM) classifier trained with the KDSFs achieved an accuracy of 91.25%, surpassing the 88.08% obtained using the predefined set. This result underscores the importance of incorporating domain knowledge in the development of speech technologies for individuals with disorders.

  • Hausser (1999)와 이기용 (1999a, 1999c)에서는 데이터베이스 관리 시스템(DBMS)을 이용하여 자연언어의 의미를 다루는 데이터베이스 의미론을 제안하였다. 특히 이기용 (1999c)에서는 수형도(tree), 논리 형태(logical fomulas), 자질 구조(feature structure)와 같은 다양한 언어 표상 형식들을 관계형 데이터베이스 관리 시스템(RDBMS)의 표상 형식인 테이블 형식으로 전환 가능함을 보임으로써 데이터베이스 의미론에 관계형 데이터 베이스 관리 시스템을 도입할 수 있음을 제시하였다. 한편, Lee (2000)에서 제시한 데이터베이스 의미론 모형에서는 데이터베이스 관리 시스템과 사용자(end-user)를 연결하는 언어 정보 처리 시스템(LIPS; Linguistic Information Processing System)을 제안하였다. 이 언어정보 처리 시스템은 사용자에 의해 입력된 언어 자료를 처리하여 그 분석 결과를 데이터베이스 관리 시스템에 전달하고, 이를 통해 구축된 데이터베이스에서 추출한 정보를 다시 사용자에게 전달하는 시스템이다. 이 논문은 한국어 '이, 히, 리, 기' 피동형을 전산처리를 할 수 있도록, 데이터베이스 의미론에서 핵심 요소인 언어정보 처리 시스템과 데이터베이스 관리 시스템을 구현하는 것 이 목적이다.
