초록
This paper aims to examine whether Korean people’s actual experiences of motion can influence their thinking about time. Two experiments investigated the actual experiences of motion would influence reasoning about time. In one experiment, I asked Korean speakers who had got off the shuttle bus from Seoul to Jecheon to answer the ambiguous question about Wednesday’s meeting. In the other experiment, I asked Korean speakers who had just flown in the Incheon International Airport from LA to answer the ambiguous question about Wednesday’s meeting (“Next Wednesday’s meeting has been moved forward two days.”). In the other experiment, indicate that the actual spatial motion can influence temporal reasoning and the length of actual motion has no influence on reasoning about time. Specifically, in the case of English target sentence, they produced a greater proportion of Friday responses relative to Monday, while in the case of Korean target sentence, they produced no greater proportion of Friday responses. Based on the results of the experiments, I conclude that the actual experiences of motion can influence Korean people’s understanding of metaphorical expressions about time in English and Korean.
Abstract
This paper aims to examine whether Korean people’s actual experiences of motion can influence their thinking about time. Two experiments investigated the actual experiences of motion would influence reasoning about time. In one experiment, I asked Korean speakers who had got off the shuttle bus from Seoul to Jecheon to answer the ambiguous question about Wednesday’s meeting. In the other experiment, I asked Korean speakers who had just flown in the Incheon International Airport from LA to answer the ambiguous question about Wednesday’s meeting (“Next Wednesday’s meeting has been moved forward two days.”). In the other experiment, indicate that the actual spatial motion can influence temporal reasoning and the length of actual motion has no influence on reasoning about time. Specifically, in the case of English target sentence, they produced a greater proportion of Friday responses relative to Monday, while in the case of Korean target sentence, they produced no greater proportion of Friday responses. Based on the results of the experiments, I conclude that the actual experiences of motion can influence Korean people’s understanding of metaphorical expressions about time in English and Korean.
