관사 사용에 있어서 규칙 지식과 정확도

박태숙 한국중앙영어영문학회 2009 영어영문학연구 Vol.51 No.3

This study investigates a relationship between explicit knowledge of rules and accuracy in article use for advanced Korean learners on a controlled methodology and a detailed classification system of articles. The purpose is to examine if teaching English article rules to L2 learners improves accuracy in their using articles. The participants were seventy-two college and graduate students. The students completed a fill-in-the-article test and a knowledge-of-rules test. The quantitative analyses of the data revealed that there is a significant correlation between rule knowledge and article use in an overall way. Specifically, explicit knowledge of rules and article accuracy were strongly correlated in the usages of ‘no article’ ∅ such as the zero article ∅1 in Type 1, 3, and 4 and the null article ∅2 in Conventional use. These findings suggest that formal instruction of articles is effective for advanced Korean learners. Teaching materials should be developed with a focus on the usages of ‘no article’ ∅. Teaching explicit article rules and providing sufficient exercises with the global context may contribute to improving advanced Korean learners’ accuracy in using articles.

The Primary Causes of Article Errors Made by Korean Advanced Learners of English

박태숙,송미정 한국영어교육학회 2008 ENGLISH TEACHING(영어교육) Vol.63 No.3

The major purpose of this study is to explore the primary causes of article errors made by advanced Korean EFL learners. The participants were forty-one college and graduate students. Immediately after completing a fill-in-the-article test, the students participated in an interview where they were asked to state the reasons for their article choice for every item on the test. The qualitative analyses of the interview data revealed that misjudgments of referentiality and noun countability were the two major causes of the students’ incorrect use of articles. The students had trouble understanding the hearer’s knowledge in a given context and judging referentiality especially when references were followed by postmodifiers. The students also had difficulties in judging countability of nouns/noun phrases when they are used in various contexts. Noun countability was found to be a big hurdle L2 advanced learners should jump over to master the English article system. Pedagogically, this study suggests that repeated article exercises involving various and large contexts will help advanced Korean EFL learners to learn how contextual factors determine referentiality and countability of nouns/noun phrases.

A Corpus-based Analysis of bear, stand, endure, and tolerate

박태숙 한국중원언어학회 2011 언어학연구 Vol.0 No.20

The analysis of corpus has drawn considerable attention in the fields of linguistics and applied linguistics. Further, SLA researchers indicate that a new era can be opened for English teaching by applying corpus studies to language pedagogy. In this respect, as a corpus approach for vocabulary, this study presents a corpus-based analysis of four English verbs (i.e., bear, stand, endure, and tolerate), representing the meaning ‘put up with.’ Quirk et al. (1985) indicates that bear and stand are used in a negative form with can. Dictionary statements show semantic and syntactic aspects of the four verbs. From the statements, the four verbs are compared on the basis of The Times 1995 Corpus. The verbs are analyzed in terms of negative interpretation, positive interpretation, collocating auxiliaries, syntax of object forms, and collocation. The data analysis shows that these verbs have some semantic and syntactic aspects which are inconsistent with the dictionary statements and explanations in grammar books. Such findings indicate that the dictionaries and grammar books do not describe these verbs correctly enough to reflect actual language use in real life. Thus, the study suggests that teaching materials including dictionaries and grammar books should be developed based on a corpus approach to enhance the reality of the data and contribute to effective language teaching in English learning contexts.

Pragmatic and Grammatical Awareness in Korean EFL Learning

박태숙 한국중원언어학회 2013 언어학연구 Vol.0 No.28

The study attempts to explore the interrelationship of pragmatic and grammatical awareness in Korean EFL learners. Twenty-one college students participated in the study. A written questionnaire containing 20 conversations was used to investigate the error recognition and ratings of pragmatic infelicities and grammatical errors. The results showed that the learners recognized a similar number of errors in conversations including pragmatic and grammatical violations. As for error ratings, the students perceived pragmatic and grammatical errors to be similarly severe, though it seemed that pragmatic errors were considered a little more serious. These results are incongruent with Bardovi-Harlig and Dörnyei (1998) and Schauer (2006), which indicated that the EFL learners detected significantly more grammatical errors than pragmatic infelicities. This study supports Niezgoda and Röver’s (2001) argument that the EFL learners did not perceive pragmatic and grammatical errors to be significantly different.

한국 영어 학습자들의 if 사용에 대한 용법별 분석

박태숙 한국중원언어학회 2023 언어학연구 Vol.- No.68

This paper examines how Korean EFL learners use if-clauses based on the classification of if-clauses in Park (2021), which shows the use of if-clauses by English native speakers through the analysis of COCA corpus. 230 if-clauses in 286 college students’ English writings were analysed in terms of frequency of usages. The results show that Korean learners of English used ‘Weakened condition and/or result’ most frequently at 29.6%. ‘Strong condition and result’ as Type 1 (Future conditional) appeared in 25.7%. ‘Truth, habit, implicit inference about the present’ as ‘Zero conditionals’ was used in 20.4%. Considering that native speakers used ‘Zero conditionals’ most frequently at 32.7% in Park (2021), it is greatly required that ‘zero conditionals’ should be introduced in English grammar books published in South Korea. Also, explicit explanation of ‘Weakened condition and/or result’ is recommended when dealing with Type 1. For implicit acquisition of if-clauses, reading of various sentences including if-clauses will help students improve their understanding of usages of if-clauses.

영어 능숙도에 따른 화용적 인식과 문법적 인식의 차이에 관한 연구

박태숙,오치성 한국중앙영어영문학회 2015 영어영문학연구 Vol.57 No.3

This study investigates the interrelationship of pragmatic awareness and grammatical awareness according to proficiency levels in Korean EFL learners. A total of 105 college students participated in the experiment, and they were divided into three proficiency groups based on their TOEIC scores. They were asked to mark their recognition and ratings of pragmatic and grammatical errors in a written questionnaire with 20 conversations including 8 pragmatic errors and 8 grammatical errors. The results showed that pragmatic awareness improved more slowly than grammatical awareness. The more proficient learners tended to perceive grammatical errors to be more severe. The intermediate and advanced learners recognized far more grammatical errors than pragmatic errors and considered grammatical errors to be more serious. These results support Bardovi-Harlig and Dörnyei (1998) and Schauer(2006). Based on the results, pedagogical implications are suggested for teaching pragmatic awareness to Korean EFL Learners.

A Corpus-based Analysis of Clause Ordering in English Complex Sentences

박태숙 한국중앙영어영문학회 2011 영어영문학연구 Vol.53 No.3

This study is a corpus-based analysis of ordering patterns of adverbial and main clauses in written and spoken English. The previous studies indicated that conditional clauses tend to precede the main clause more frequently than temporal clauses, and that temporal clauses are more frequently in the sentence-initial position than causal clauses. This study aims to present a more comprehensive picture for the usages of 13 adverbial clauses. The data are from LOB representing written English and parts of BNC representing spoken English. The corpus analysis shows that till-, until-, and before-clauses representing Time before follow the main clause most frequently among temporal clauses, but that as-clauses representing Same time precede the main clause frequently. Because- clauses show a strong tendency to occur sentence-finally, and causal as-clauses follow the main verb much more frequently particularly in spoken English. If-clauses tend to occur in the sentence-initial position, whereas unless- and though-clauses tend to be in the final position. Considered an informal variant of although-clauses, though-clauses are used frequently in written English, showing a preference for the final position in both written and spoken English. The ordering patterns are explained in terms of the principles of iconicity, processing, and information structure. Pedagogically, this study suggests that teaching materials should be developed for Korean learners of English based on these objective results of the corpus data in order to enhance the correct use of adverbial and main clauses in complex sentences.

The Effects of Natural Exposure on Advanced Korean EFL Learners' English Article Use

박태숙 한국영어학회 2006 영어학 Vol.6 No.2

Park, Tae-Sook. 2006. The Effects of Natural Exposure on Advanced Korean EFL Learners' English Article Use. Korean Journal of English Language and Linguistics 6-2, 279-305. This paper investigates the effect of natural exposure to English on advanced Korean learners' article use on the basis of the detailed classification of the English article system. Seventy-two advanced Korean college and graduate students participated in this study. They were divided into two groups depending on whether they have an experience of living in English-speaking countries. All the participants completed a questionnaire and a cloze test. The results showed that natural exposure to English had a great effect on the use of articles in Type 1 to 4 and the use of the definite article the and the indefinite article a. In terms of specific article usages, natural exposure was closely related to the accurate use of articles concerning E5 ([the] Immediate situational use), E6 ([the] Larger situational use), E8 ([the] Associative anaphoric use), E14 ([a] Attributive indefinites) and E15 ([∅1(p)] Attributive indefinites). Based on the results, this study suggests that for situational use of 'the,' associative anaphoric use, and attributive indefinites, providing much natural input and giving opportunities of interaction in English are recommended in the Korean EFL context. Further, in order to improve the general ability of using articles accurately, advanced learners in Korea are encouraged to be exposed to natural English through mass media, computers, and various audio and video tapes.
