Grammatical Content for Teaching Korean Reflexives: Focusing on Jagi

This paper seeks to provide the grammatical content needed to teach the Korean reflexive jagi by combining an analysis of learners’ errors with research findings in the fields of Korean linguistics and Korean language education. The analysis of learners’ errors suggests that grammar instruction should cover the following points: (1) restrictions on the person of the antecedent, (2) the honorific form of jagi, (3) the distance between jagi and the antecedent, (4) the distribution of jagi in the sentence, (5) the difference between jagi and personal pronouns, and (6) potentially confusing aspects of indirect speech. These six points are then sorted into the grammatical content needed to teach jagi, which is divided into meaning and usage, construction information, restrictions, intensive/supplemental information, and similar grammar. The objective of this is to provide instructors with material for teaching jagi that they can easily adapt to the sequence of grammar that is being taught in the classroom.
