Abstract

In this paper, I present an analysis of Sino-Japanese/ Korean words of AB-CB type, such as “佛人–法人”, “上陸–下陸”, and “洋底–海底”, as examples of the correspondence between Sino-Japanese and Sino-Korean words, extracted from a modern Japanese-Korean parallel corpus. To being with, Japanese and Korean borrowed “佛人” and “法人” from Chinese, but from the late 19th century onward, ”佛人” became dominant in Japanese, and “法人” in Korean. As a result, they became a case of non- identical correspondence between the two languages. At a later point, it is observed that Korean “法人” was changing into “佛人”, though it is not clear whether this change was influenced by Japanese. On the other hand, the pair of “上陸-下陸” does not have a Chinese counterpart. I thus argue that they are Japan-made and Korea-made words, respectively, and that they are a case of non-identical correspondence. Korean “下陸” continued to be used until the mid-20th century, but it was eventually replaced by “上陸”. Finally, the pair “洋底–海底” illustrates a type of change where Japanese “洋底” consequently changed into its Korean counterpart, “海底”. I presume that from the late 19th century, “洋-” had been frequently used in Japanese, and that this influenced textbooks and led to the adoption of “洋-” in the Kōtō Shōgaku Dokuhon ‘Advanced Elementary Reader’.
