朝鮮 初期 洞里村名의 國語學的 硏究

Abstract

This study collected the different transcription of town names in the early Joseon Dynasty, presented the different transcription by stereotyping it and discussed word forms of Korean reflected in the transcription of town names in the early Joseon Dynasty while explaining the relationship between the different transcriptions. The different transcription of town names was collected by using the annotated data described in Topography materials in the early Joseon Dynasty and the different transcription of town names was collected by closely comparing Topography materials from different eras. The following findings were derived while deciphering the relationship of collected the different transcription. First, 7 different transcription relationships were confirmed such as ‘transliteration vs. transliteration, transliteration vs. meaning-borrowing, meaning-borrowing vs. meaning-borrowing, different transcription of Abbre- viations, different transcription of simplification, different transcription caused by Chinese reading of a character, sound borrowing vs. Chinese Characters of Korean Origin’ etc. Second, it turned out that Town Name also tended to be read by their Chinese pronunciation. It was confirmed that Deung can be used in transcription of ‘Do’ and also confirmed that ㅜ> ㅗ changes of Korean can be found in the transcription of Town Name. Third, ‘Baemi’ is known as ‘the unit counting demarcated rice fields’ in modern Korean but it was confirmed that the transcription of town names writing this ‘Baemi’ is Beopmi and the original meaning of ‘Baemi’ was identified as ‘Galpi’ or ‘Jukji’ based on the fact that this Beopmi corresponds to Ik.
