Cho, Mi-Hui. 2018. English Vowel Adaptation in Korean: Differential Degrees of Perceptual Influence on Individual Vowels. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 43-1. 155- 174. Motivated by the fact that Korean learners of English are confused with American English back monophthongs such as /ɑ/, /ɔ/, and /ʌ/, the present paper tested the possibility that loanword adaptation of English targets with perceptual confusion is less likely to be mediated by perceptual factors. To this end, perceptual patterns of English-to-Korean vowel mapping was drawn from a perceptual database and loanword patterns were drawn from a loanword database for English back monophthongs /ɑ, ɔ, ʌ, ʊ, u/ in order to compare loanword maps with perceptual maps. The overall results showed that perceptual influence on loanword adaptation was significant so that loanword patterns were constrained strongly by perceptual matching of phonetic segments between the donor and recipient languages. The degree of perceptual influence, however, varied depending on vowels such that loanword adaptation of English vowels with a dominant perceptual map is more likely to be mediated by perceptual factors while those without a dominant perceptual map is less likely to be mediated by perceptual factors. When perceptual influence was decreased, other factors such as orthography and standardization took on an important role in loanword adaptation as well. (Kyonggi University)
