중국인의 한국어 한자어 발음에서 보이는 중국어 음평과 양평의 영향: 동형동의어를 중심으로

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of Chinese high and level vs. rising tone on the pitch pattern of corresponding Sino-Korean words delivered by Chinese learners of Korean and to examine the aspects how these two tones of corresponding Chinese words affect the pitch patterns of Sino-Korean words. Scope of this research is limited to the Chinese learners of Korean, especially when they pronounce same-form-same-meaning Sino-Korean words. In this study, Chinese learners pronounced both Chinese words and corresponding Sino-Korean words. By using the software learners’ pitch pattern were recorded, analyzed, and compared with the tone of corresponding Chinese words. Experimental results showed that Sino-Korean words were affected by Chinese ‘high and level tone - high and level tone’, ‘high and level tone - rising tone’,‘high and level tone - falling-rising tone’, ‘high and level tone - falling tone’ and ‘rising tone - falling tone’ when they started with lenis sounds. On the other hand when Sino-Korean words started with aspirated sounds they were affected by Chinese ‘rising tone - high and level tone’, ‘rising tone - rising tone’, ‘rising tone - falling-rising tone’, ‘rising tone - falling tone’. In conclusion, the Chinese learners’ pitch patterns of Sino-Korean words are affected by both Chinese high and level & rising tone, especially when Sino-Korean words started with lenis sounds they were more affected by Chinese high and level tone, on the other hand Chinese rising tone influence Sino-Korean words more when they were started with aspirated sounds.
