중국인 학습자의 한국어 자음 음운 규칙 습득 양상 연구 -동일 학습자의 숙달도 변화를 중심으로-

The main purpose of this study is to analyze the Chinese learner’s acquisition of Korean phonological rules which is concerned with consonant. The learner approached to higher level pronounces L2 more fluently than the lower level’s learner generally. However, some phonological rules cannot be applied well even in the case of higher level’s learner. In this study, we researched specific group which is constituted by Chinese learners who attend for the completion of entry level. As a result of the research, the most difficult rule for the Chinese learners is liquidization. And also Chinese learners struggle with the applications of ‘ㄹ’ nasalization and general nasalization. Representing ‘ㄹ’ nasalization and general nasalization, especially, the learners who have not low proficiency anymore cannot depart easily from entry level due to the errors caused by imprecise place of articulation. In terms of the place of articulation, peripheral consonants cause difficulty to representing ‘ㄹ’ nasalization and general nasalization. Among the peripheral consonants, the bilabial ‘ㅂ’ is the most difficult element that interrupts the application of ‘ㄹ’ nasalization and general nasalization.
