日韓のテレビ・ドラマに用いられた呼びかけ表現 -ポジティブ・ポライトネスの観点から-

Abstract

In this study, the address in Korean and Japanese TVdramas was analyzed in the perspective of positive politeness.The subject materials for the study are Japanese dramas and the remakes of those dramas. The address were categorized by five different types: names, exclamations, fictive kinterms, nouns, personal pronouns. The usages of address were then analyzed using ‘listener level’ and ‘scene level’ put forwarded by Kabayaet.al.(1998).The name type was the most commonly used addressing form in both Korean and Japanese. The study showed that for the name type, only the last name was used as positive politeness strategy in Japanese while the full name was used in Korean. In Japanese, calling a name by last name was a way of expressing positive politeness to show intimacy to a close friend in a very casuals cene. In Korean,using a full name was a way of expressing positive politeness to a younger person regardless of degree o f intimacy relation.While names and personal pronouns were relatively frequently used in Japanese, nouns and fictive kin terms were more frequent in Korean. Inaddition, the fictive kin terms and the usage of ‘Senpai’showed a significant difference between the two languages. The address of the two languages express positive politeness to show and a feeling of intimacy and a sense of solidarity and to reduce emotional distance with the listener. This study focused on the addressing in the perspective of positive politeness, but the further analysis on the negative politeness is needed.
