An Study of Communication within Korean Language Learners` Conversation

The Korean language research and education have emphasized the improvement of communicative competence of Korean language learners in these days. So many researchers are interested in communication theory. How Korean language users make and interpret the conversation? How Korean language users use the communication constraints in their conversation? What is the difference between Korean language users and learners using the communication constraints? It will be meaningful to examine how Korean language learners recognize the communication constraints of Korean. There are many communication constraints that the ways we open and close conversations, our conversational turn-taking signals, how we repair messages to make them interpretable, how bracketing is done, and so forth. Also how we change the topics, what are Grice's maxims of Cooperation Principle. These constraints smooth social interaction and interact with the system constraints. For example, Korean language users use many kinds of politeness expressions when they open and close the conversation according to the relation between speaker and hearer. For this purpose, I will analyze the communication within Korean language learners' conversation and explain the causes of the error. The result of this analysis can be used as an effective teaching method for Korean language learners.
