복식문화의 변화와 강릉방언

The purpose of this study is to examine aspects and causes of the change and disappearance in the Gangneung dialect vocabulary about costume. A typical example of linguistic factors that influence the change of costume vocabulary is competition with the standard language. However, costume as culture has a more powerful effect than linguistic factor. For example, the following factors lead to the disappearance: the disappearance of the referent, the inherent characteristics of the costume, the introduction of the new culture, and the change in values about costume.
