초록

The purpose of this paper is to investigate Korean high school students’ knowledge of the English adjective-noun collocation. Three pairs of English synonymous adjectives wrong/false, personal/private, large/huge were selected from COCA and tested with 100 Korean high school students. The subjects are divided into two groups(high and low level students) according to their English grades on the final exam. The findings of the study was as follows. First, the average score of the whole high school students was as low as 58.37%. The high level group(59.20%) was higher than the low level group(57.53%), but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. Second, there was little correlation (r=.109) between their general English ability and collocational knowledge. In only 11 out of the total 30 questions, the high level group’s score was higher than the low level group. Third. there was a considerable difference between the subjects’ reponses and the COCA frequency. These results suggest that Korean EFL learners need to study English with focus on collocational chunks, rather than grammar and individual words.
