한국 예비 대학생의 영어 사용 특성 파악을 위한 대규모 공개 영어 학습자 코퍼스 구축 및 분석

국문 초록 (Abstract)

최근 영어 학습자 코퍼스(English learner corpus)를 활용하여 다양한 영어 교육 분야에 활용하는 시도가 이뤄지고 있다. 하지만 지금까지 국내에서 개발된 대다수 영어 학습자 코퍼스는 소규모이거나 공개가 되지않아 공익을 위한 영어 교육 콘텐츠로서의 적절한 역할을 하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내외 영어학습자 코퍼스 구축 현황을 살펴보고 대규모 공개 한국인 영어 학습자 코퍼스의 필요성을 논의한다. 또한, 이와 같은 필요성을 바탕으로 1백만 단어 이상으로 만들어진 대규모 공개 한국인 영어 학습자 코퍼스 구축과정과 결과를 분석하여 예비 대학생의 영어사용 특성을 파악하고 이를 영어 교육 개선을 위해 활용할 수 있는 방안을 제안한다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In recent years, researchers have become increasingly interested in the creation and pedagogical use of English learner corpora. Many studies have shown that learner corpora can not only make a significant contribution to second language acquisition research but also contribute to the construction and evaluation of language tests by advancing our understanding of English learners. So far, however, little attention has been paid to the Korean EFL (English as a foreign language) learners corpus. The Yonsei English Learner Corpus (YELC 2011) is a specialized, monolingual, and synchronic Korean EFL learner corpus that was developed by Yonsei University from 2011 to 2012. Over 3,000 Korean high school graduates (or equivalents) who were accepted by Yonsei University for their further studies participated in this project. It consists of 6,572 written texts (1,085,828 words) at nine different English proficiency levels. In this paper, we describe its compilation, and more specifically, how we have corpusized from a text archive to a corpus. After introducing the process of corpusization, we report arresting insights into the specific linguistic features that different proficiency levels of Korean learners of English have. This study also discusses the potential use of the YELC 2011 which is now freely available for research purposes.
