In this accessible survey, two leading specialists introduce a
broad range of topics in Korean linguistics, including the general
historical background of the language, its phonetics, phonology,
morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, and sociolinguistics,
and the interfaces between those areas. Expertly written and
drawing on the authors' many years of experience, the book answers
questions such as what languages is Korean related to, what is
unique about the Korean sound system, and how are 'subject' and
'topic' distinguished in Korean. It guides the student through the
major issues in Korean linguistics in a theory-neutral way, at the
same time discussing the latest research on the language, and
exploring its unique writing system, which has long been a topic of
interest to linguists and to those interested in writing systems in
general. It is the ideal introduction for students both at the
beginning of their studies, and at a more advanced level.
