20세기 전기 구어에 나타난 국어의 보조사 연구

Abstract

This study aims to analyze special particles of the Spoken language in the former part of 20th century quantitatively and research the special particles’ properties of this times. The former part of 20th century corresponds roughly to 1900-1945 years. The data is the Spoken language corpus in the former part of 20th century of Korea university that collected the voice recording data and imagine materials made in this time, and transcribed the language data. First, we compared special particles’ frequency by type in this time and special particles’ frequency by type in current language, and then the distinguishing special particle form was compared with current language and modern language each. Also, the preceeding categories that connected the special particles were researched and then on the basis of the result special particles were classified. As particles connection type was analyzed, the different type with current language presented in the movie data by gramophone record and the play data by gramophone record. Last, we suggested that the special particle ‘yo’ as ‘heyyo’ style form was mainly used by children or women and the special particle ‘ya’ that were combined to other special particles usually appeared in the movie data by gramophone record and the play data by gramophone record, by studying the distribution of ‘yo, ya’ which were the distinguishing forms among the data we dealt with. We proved that the aspects of the special particles of the Spoken language in the former part of 20th century generally have forms close to current Korean language in spite that it also plays a role as a bridge that connects the latter modern Korean language and the current Korean language. The limit of this research is that a deep study about each special particle was not done since it is a wide range of research about the overall special particles shown in the data. However, this study has a significance in widely showing the features of the Spoken language in the former part of 20th century. In spite of this significance, since these data mostly were the movie data by gramophone record, the play data by gramophone record or general movie data rather than general conversations, there is a possibility that the property of the specific genre may have been reflected to the data. Therefore, if more data are collected, not only the linguistic features of the specific genre in the former part of 20th century but also the feature of spoken language in this period would be studied in a more detailed and precise way.
