A Study on Native Judgement of Fluency in the Spoken Performance of Korean Learners

In addition to grammatical accuracy, pronunciation, and appropriateness, ets. fluency is one of the several key elements of language assessment. This study is concerned with three subjects of fluency such as speech speed, filled pauses and disfluency features in the spoken performance of Korean learners. Also, it has an effect on native judgement of fluency in the spoken performance of Korean learners. This study analysed spoken performance of 10 Chinese Korean learners, it was observed that syllable per minutes, number of more than 3-second pause, number of more than 1-second pause, number of repetition, number of hesitates. This shows that three subjects of fluency did not exactly effect on native judgement of fluency. The implication of the study is that analysis of native judgement of fluency may have the potential to provide an objective tool for Korean teachers to assess spoken fluency. In further study to add more reliability I will try to take and study variety spoken performance of Korean learners.
