잊혀지는 토착어에 관한 관찰 : 始興郡 儀旺邑을 중심으로 = On Some Native Words Dying Out

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

One outstanding feature of the urbanization of the rural areas, occurring as our country becomes industrialized, is a change in the folkways, living utensils and geographical names of the areas. In ofter words, as some of the utensils and traditional customs that existed before urbanization disappear, the names attached to them are falliug into disuse and being forgotten. It this phenomenon continues, many of the native names and expressions will become extinct, make it difficult to understand the rural life before urbanization.
It has been found by this investigation that some native words involved in the phenomenon above have acquired new symbolic meanings, but also that some other native words concerned with traditional folkwasy have regained their original meanings as a result of campaign to restore traditional customs. As a result of the revival, for example, of traditional wrestling, a sport that had long been popular in rural areas, wrestling terms such as "mureup-chiki", "antari-geolki", etc. have become current again. The tendency of the administrative offices to rename rural administrative areas on the basis of Chinese characters has been found to work against the continuing existence of the natural traditional names of natural-born villages.
It is found that the best way to maintain traditional natural terms and names is to maintain or revive traditional folkways, and it is advised that all the traditional natural names of villages be recorded before they are completely lost.
