비유창성(disfluency)은 문어와 같이 정연한 구조로 말하지 못하는 현상 전반을 지칭한다. 이는 구어에서 보편적으로 발생하는 현상으로 구어 의존 구문 분석의 난이도를 상향시키는 요인이다. 본 연구에서는 비유창성 요소 유형을 담화 표지, 수정 표현, 반복 표현, 삽입 표현으로 분류하였다. 또한 유형별 비유창성 요소를 실제 말뭉치에서 어떻게 구문 주석할 것인지를 제안한다. 이와 같은 구어 데이터 처리 방식은 대화시스템 등 구어를 처리해야 하는 도메인에서의 자연언어이해 성능 향상에 기여할 것이다.

In a mobile environment, communication takes place via SMS text messages. Vocabularies used in SMS texts can be expected to use vocabularies of different classes from those used in general Korean literary style sentence. For example, in the case of a typical literary style, the sentence is correctly initiated or terminated and the sentence is well constructed, while SMS text corpus often replaces the component with an omission and a brief representation. To analyze these vocabulary usage characteristics, the existing colloquial style corpus and the literary style corpus are used. The experiment compares and analyzes the vocabulary use characteristics of the colloquial corpus SMS text corpus and the Naver Sentiment Movie Corpus, and the written Korean written corpus. For the comparison and analysis of vocabulary for each corpus, the part of speech tag adjective (VA) was used as a standard, and a distinctive collexeme analysis method was used to measure collostructural strength. As a result, it was confirmed that adjectives related to emotional expression such as'good-','sorry-', and'joy-' were preferred in the SMS text corpus, while adjectives related to evaluation expressions were preferred in the Naver Sentiment Movie Corpus. The word embedding was used to automatically construct a sentiment lexicon based on the extracted adjectives with high collostructural strength, and a total of 343,603 sentiment representations were automatically built.

This study investigates the transitional aspect of vowel harmony in Korean verbal conjugation. By observing the patterns of harmonic and disharmonic tokens of 42 verbal stems searched for in the National Institute of Korean Language (NIKL) Korean Dialogue Corpus 2020/2021, I found that disharmonic tokens appeared less than 0.1% of time, most of which consisted of an /a/-stem with a monosyllabic sentence-final suffix. It was noted that disharmonic pattern started to spread to other suffixes and possibly to /o/-stems. A simple perception test showed that the disharmonic forms might have originated from vowel reduction or undershoot. These results suggest that the ongoing change is accounted for from both the articulatory and perceptual perspectives.

본 논문은 의미역 주석(Semantic Role Labeling) 자원인 FrameNet을 준구어 말뭉치인 드라마 대본에 주석하는 과정과 주석 결과에 대해 서술한다. 본 논문에서는 프레임 - 프레임 논항 구조의 주석 범위를 한 문장에서 여러 발화로 이루어진 장면 (Scene) 단위의 대본으로 확장하여 문장 내에서 생략된 프레임 논항(Null-Instantiated Frame Elements)을 장면 단위 대본 내의 다른 발화에서 복원하였다. 본 논문은 프레임 자동 분석기를 통해 동일한 드라마의 한국어, 영어 대본에 FrameNet 주석을 한 드라마 대본을 선발된 주석자에 의해 대상 어휘 적합성 평가, 프레임 적합성 평가, 생략된 프레임 논항 복원을 실시하고, 자동 주석된 대본과 주석자 작업 후의 대본 결과를 비교한 결과와 예시를 제시한다. 주석자가 자동 주석된 대본 중 총 2,641개 주석 (한국어 1,200개, 영어 1,461개)에 대하여 대상 어휘 적합성 평가를 실시하여 한국어 190개 (15.83%), 영어 226개 (15.47%)의 부적합 대상 어휘를 삭제하였다. 프레임 적합성 평가에서는 대상 어휘에 자동 주석된 프레임의 적합성을 평가하여 한국어 622개 (61.68%), 영어 473개 (38.22%)의 어휘에 대하여 새로운 프레임을 부여하였다. 생략된 프레임 논항을 복원한 결과 작업된 평균 프레임 논항 개수가 한국어 0.780개에서 2.519개, 영어 1.290개에서 2.253개로 증가하였다.

This study investigates how common English hedge expressions such as 'I think' and 'I guess' appear in Korean, with the aim of providing explicit explanation for English-speaking leaners of Korean. Based on a contrastive analysis of spoken English and Korean corpus, this study argues three points: Firstly, 'I guess' appears with a wider variety of modalities in Korean than 'I think'. Secondly, this study has found that Korean textbooks contain inappropriate use of registers regarding the English translations of '-geot -gat-': although these markers are used in spoken Korean, they were translated into written English. Therefore, this study suggests that '-geot -gat-' be translated into 'I think' in spoken English, and into 'it seems' in the case of written English and narratives. Lastly, the contrastive analysis has shown that when 'I think' is used with deontic modalities such as 'I think I have to', Korean use '-a-ya-get-': the use of hedge marker 'I think' with 'I have to', which shows obligation or speaker's volition turns the deontic modalities into expressions of speaker's opinion.

This research aims to analyze Korean language learners' spoken corpus to reveal their acquisition order and development patterns of particles. To this end, we collected free conversation data of beginning level Korean language learners over five months and constructed a corpus. It was confirmed that particle acquisition takes place over four stages based on the frequency of particle use and its accuracy. The stages of development were first 'ey, un/nun, i/ka(nominative), ul/lul', second 'eyse, hako(conjunction), to, hako(adverbial)', third '(u)lo, pota, man, eykey, kkaci, puthe, kkeyse, ui', and fourth 'hanthey, (i)na(conjunction), wa/kwa(conjunction), kkey, (i)lang(adverbial), eykeyse, mata, wa/kwa(adverbial), (i)na(auxiliary particle), pakkey, (i)lang(conjunction)'. Based on these findings, the characteristics shown in the particle use of beginning level learners are as the following. First, case markers start to develop foremost. Second, the accuracy of each particle use tends to decrease slightly over time. Third, the frequency of some particles was observed to suddenly increase and then decrease again at a certain period. Fourth, the order of most, but not all particles' appearance seemed to be related to the order of being introduced in textbooks. It is important that this research provides implications for grammar education when establishing Korean language education curriculum or developing grammar syllabus.
