This paper deals with the research history of African languages in Korea. It begins with the background information how the African linguistics was introduced in Korea for the first time with its relevant institutions. The best known African lingua Swahili was chosen to be applied as a teaching subject at the higher educational level. In the meantime it spread to the other two languages, namely Hausa and Zulu. Among Korean scholars of these languages, it was the first given duty to describe the relevant grammars and further to compile the dictionaries with two basic goals of achieving the need of students in one hand and to establish the ground for further research of these languages. On behalf of the academic journal of Korean association of African studies different topics concerning the structure and the functions African languages are published up to now. They are to be classified under the general disciplines of linguistic studies, i.e. phonology, morpho-syntax and discourse-pragmatics. On the matter of extra-linguistic fields the methods of historical linguistics and sociolinguistics are applied. Individual accomplishments in these fields are introduced with their main interests and topics. Furthermore their relations to main stream research in Europe and America are explained in order that the world-wide audience can be able to apprehend the situation in Korea, although the circle is still very small and its academic activities are quite limited. The paper intended to bridge the gap between the Korea scholars and outside world academics in the field of African linguistics.

Abstract

This paper deals with the research history of African languages in Korea. It begins with the background information how the African linguistics was introduced in Korea for the first time with its relevant institutions. The best known African lingua Swahili was chosen to be applied as a teaching subject at the higher educational level. In the meantime it spread to the other two languages, namely Hausa and Zulu. Among Korean scholars of these languages, it was the first given duty to describe the relevant grammars and further to compile the dictionaries with two basic goals of achieving the need of students in one hand and to establish the ground for further research of these languages. On behalf of the academic journal of Korean association of African studies different topics concerning the structure and the functions African languages are published up to now. They are to be classified under the general disciplines of linguistic studies, i.e. phonology, morpho-syntax and discourse-pragmatics. On the matter of extra-linguistic fields the methods of historical linguistics and sociolinguistics are applied. Individual accomplishments in these fields are introduced with their main interests and topics. Furthermore their relations to main stream research in Europe and America are explained in order that the world-wide audience can be able to apprehend the situation in Korea, although the circle is still very small and its academic activities are quite limited. The paper intended to bridge the gap between the Korea scholars and outside world academics in the field of African linguistics.
