한일 약속취소행위의 담화구조 및 담화전략

Abstract

In this study, the characteristics and differences of two languages such as Korean and Japanese were analyzed by analyzing and reviewing the discourse style in the promise cancellation scene from the viewpoint of discourse type, discourse structure, and discourse strategy. The type of discourse can be divided into a cancellation intention expression type, a reason presentation type, and an alternative proposal type. When analyzing and comparing discourse styles between different genders and between same genders, it was found that Korean and Japanese showed similar discourse style such as explaining the reason first and expressing the intention of cancellation or presenting an alternative. However, from the viewpoint of the ratio deviation, Japanese men and women seem to prefer the reason presentation style more than the Korean men and women. In the discourse structure, in the analysis of the discourses between different genders and between the same genders, Koreans (both men and women) preferred straightforward “Reason + Intention” style. In Japan, however, women preferred “Reason + Alternative” style, although males showed similar results to Koreans. It is found that Japanese women showed overwhelming dominance in the discourse style of indirect expression of the cancellation intention. Discourse strategies are categorized into implication type implicitly showing the intention of cancellation and non-implication type that does not imply the intention of cancellation at all. Korean men and women used non-implication type strategies. Japanese women have similarities in that they take the same non-implication strategy as Korean women, but Japanese men are adopting an implication strategy. They used different strategy from that of Koreans and Japanese women.
