초록
The goal of this paper is to investigate some aspects of the use of the English adjective beautiful synchronically and diachronically through COCA and COHA. The main findings of the study are as follows. (i) beautiful is most used in FICTION of 5 genres. (ii) According to COHA, the frequency of beautiful increases rapidly in the 1820s, and reaches its highest point in the 1840s and 1850s, and then decreases continuously until 1980s. (iii) COCA shows that beautiful, as expected, combines more strongly with female nouns than other nouns. (iv) The paper examined Korean college students’ familiarity with ‘beautiful+human/kin noun’ expressions. There was a big difference in nouns such as boy, baby, child, son between COCA and the Korean college students’ responses. This result shows that Korean learners of English need to study English with focus on chunks rather than individual words.
