韓國 固有漢字의 造字原理 고찰

Abstract

In this thesis, among the research contents of the Principle of Constructing Unique Chinese Characters in Korea, from the perspective of Chinese Character Studies, a part that could be reexamined was investigated. The summary of the results reviewed in the main article is as follows. First, Ayoukai-Hoosanosin(鮎貝房之進) suggested ‘Syssemantographic and picto-phonetic method(會意兼形聲)’ in a study on the the Principle of Constructing Unique Chinese Characters in Korea, but in later studies, Syssemantographic and picto-phonetic method(會意兼形聲) was hardly mentioned. However, the 欌, 閪, and 碶 presented as examples of Syssemantographic and picto-phonetic method(會意兼形聲) and formation by Ayoukai-Hoosanosin(鮎貝房之進) can be considered to be sufficiently valid. Second, most of the cases in which the Principle of Constructing Chinese Characters is referred to as ‘borrowing method(假借)’ can be summarized as the expression ‘combination between Chinese consonants’ mentioned by Ha Young-sam is more appropriate. Third, the ‘compound character(合字)’ proposed by Ayoukai-Hoosanosin(鮎貝房之進) is often referred to by later researchers as Syssemantographic method(會意) or Picto-phonetic method(形聲), but the latter is judged to be more valid.
