日韓二字漢語の動詞化および形容詞化

要旨

The present study compared morphological features of two-kanji compound words in Japanese and Korean. Japanese adds -suru after these words to form a verb while Korean adds -hada to do the same. This study counted the number of compounds with -suru and -hada among the 1,871 compounds taken from the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test (Revised Edition 2007) vocabulary list, from level 4 to level 2. Due to the difference between Japanese and Korean usages of -suru and -hada, two separate analyses for verbs and adjectives were conducted. The number of verbalization was 606 in Japanese and 627 in Korean. In case of adjectives, Japanese showed 170 adjectives, while Korean had 126. Based on these results, the present study made a proposal for Japanese language education for Korean students.
