한자어 단어 구성에서의 두음법칙과 경음화

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to describe the relationship between the Structures of Sino-korean Words and the Word-initial Rule as well as Fortition. The Structures of Sino-korean Words can be differently analysed following the different aspects in the Sino-korean morphemes which observe the Word-initial Rule. A Sino-korean morpheme which is in the non-initial positions of the words, especially in the intermediate position of the word, such as ‘yeo(女)’, we can find that ‘sin-yeo seong(新女性)’ is subject to the Word-initial Rule, but ’cheonyeo-jak(處女作)’ is not. The distinction between the aspects is the structures of them. Also, the Structure can be differently analysed by the meaning of the words. We take a good illustration of the difference between the word -- ‘軟綠色’. which is subject to Word-initial Rule and the structure is ‘軟-綠色’, with the meaning of ‘light green’. When describing ‘the light green color’, it is not subject to Word-initial Rule and the structures is ‘軟綠-色’. Also, The Fortitions have various aspects in Sino-korean phonology d(ㄷ), s(ㅅ), j(ㅈ) of plain souds become fortis after r(ㄹ), this rule applies to all bisyllabic words, but not Native Korean words. For that reason, the Fortition also can analyse the Structures of Sino-korean Words. but the Fortition also be observed in the three-syllable. Specifically, the different aspects of the ‘one-syllable sino-korean morpheme’ are found in the ‘two-syllable + one-syllable’ structures. and we can distinguish the difference by analysing the word meanings.
