Abstract

This study analyzes the errors in usage of particles, shown in presentation materials of Korean learners at advanced level. The purpose of the study is to find points to consider when teaching particles in spoken texts, based on the aspects of errors in usage of particles in spoken texts. Since most studies about this subject are conducted on written texts, it was not an easy task to compare written and spoken texts. The speeches of 43 Level 5 Korean language learners were recorded and analyzed. To find the aspects of errors in usage of particles, the errors were divided into three big categories based on error patterns, types of particles, and difference among individuals. The error patterns included errors of omission, addition, substitution, form, paraphrase and others. Among these patterns, error of omission had the highest frequency, and substitution had the second. Compared to the study of errors in written texts, error of substitution occurred most frequently and omission was next in written texts. This comparison shows that Korean learners at advanced level more frequently omit particles when speaking formally than when writing. According to the aspects of errors based on types of particles, in nominative particles error of omission was most frequent, and substitution was next. In objective particles however, error of substitution was most frequent and omission was next. Also particles ‘은/는’ and ‘에’ had a high rate of error. In aspects of individual errors, the result showed that there was a big difference in the rate of error between individuals.
