한자 형태소 감수성을 통한 한국어 교육에서의 한자어 교육 연구

Abstract

This study aims to examine the correlation between Korean language learners’ sensitivity to Sino-Korean morphemes and their Sino-Korean lexical competence. It will then go on to find implications for a lesson on Sino-Korean in Korean language education. The study suggests that Korean language learners are sensitive to Sino-Korean morphemes when describing their ability to recognize Sino-Korean morphemes separately during Korean language lessons and to guess their meaning. The study has measured sensitivity to Sino-Korean morphemes and analyzed its correlation with a learner’s Sino-Korean lexical competence. As a result, the research has been able to establish a statistically strong positive correlation. The results show that higher sensitivity to Sino-Korean morphemes leads to stronger Sino-Korean lexical competence. This implies that strengthening on Sino-Korean education morphemes can be a more effective vocabulary lesson for learners with weak Sino-Korean lexical competence. Therefore, the study emphasizes the need for a form of education that improves the lexical competence of Korean language learners by implementing a lesson in Sino-Korean that enhances their sensitivity to morphemes.
