Abstract

This paper discusses the research direction of the contrastive study on meanings of Korean and Chinese spatial adjectives focused on the meanings starting from the importance of spatial adjectives. Based on this, vocabulary ‘deep’ is selected to be done the concrete contrastive study. This paper shows that the information of meanings of dictionaries is insufficient through the analysis of dictionaries, which the existing study is mostly based on the information of dictionaries and only gives the simple contrast whether the vocabulary has the meaning or not. And also it points out that based on the materials of language, the meaning system of vocabulary should be grasped and the contrast should be provided if the contrastive study is done in depth. This paper also proposes that it is necessary to establish the contrast of meaning system and the frame of meaning contrast from the broader point of view. It also discusses that the frame of meaning contrast should be established on the basis of the original attributes of spatial adjectives and the appearance of meaning extension which is based on the direction of meaning extension of general vocabulary.

According to this, the meaning system of {deep/深} is grasped and the frame of meaning contrast is established.
