대구지역 일본어 간판에 대한 사회언어학적 연구

Abstract

In this paper, the analysis of the actual situation of Japanese signboards in Daegu and the results of the consciousness survey of university students were discussed from a sociolinguistic perspective. As a Result of the actual-situation analysis of Japanese signboards (Japanese restaurants), the frequency of notation type is most high in the combination of Korean and Japanese, followed by Korean alone and then byJapanese alone. Also, Hiragana was the most common form of notation. Meanwhile, as a result of the consciousness survey, when meeting(watching) people who speak Japanese frequently, looking at signs written in Hiragana and Katakana, looking at Japanese cars on the street, more than 60 to 80 percent of them showed no resistance. Moreover, when listening to Japanese announcements on the subway and watching Koreans talking with Japanese on the subway or on the street, the response that there was no reluctance was overwhelmingly high, over 90%. Also, regarding Japanese menu labeling, the percentage of comfort was slightly higher than that of inconvenience, and the meaning of Japanese signboards was almost similar to that of guessing and not. Lastly, Japanese signboards could be seen as the trend of being imaged as “international and expensive-looking restaurants,” and there were high opinions that it would be better to combine Japanese and Hangeul if possible.
