외국어로서의 한국어 교육을 위한 새 문법 체계

Abstract

Suh, Cheong-Soo. 2002. A New Grammatical System for the Teaching of Korean Language as a Foreign Language. Teaching Korean as a Foreign Language, 27, 1~47. This paper aims to propose a new grammatical system for the teaching of Korean language to foreign learners. It argues strongly that emphasis should be placed on detailed description of grammatical elements which are peculiar to the Korean language because they are the frameworks repeatedly used in all sentence constructions and thus far more important than the word meanings themselves. This argument is contrary to most Korean grammatical literature which is oriented to traditional or school grammar. Such old grammatical systems are based on word meanings rather than grammatical elements. Thus, it is crucial to reform such an old and ineffective system consisting of old terminology which are peculiar to Korean traditional grammar and lacking in universality. (Hanyang University)
