A Study of <n-insertion> in Modern Korean

本研究的主要目的是弄清说汉城方言的年轻人(20多岁)在现代韩语中的&lt；n-插入&gt；条件。本研究以年轻的首尔方言使用者为研究对象，对&lt；n-Insertion&gt；进行了一项信息者调查，结果表明：年轻的首尔方言使用者的&lt；n-Insertion&gt；与以下成分的声母关系最为密切。此外，后缀的长度、前缀的韵母、对词的熟悉程度、词的结构、后缀的第一个音节的音节结构、词或短语的长度等其他各种因素都会多层次地影响&lt；n-插入。此外，从社会语言学的角度来看，有趣的是，说首尔方言的年轻人的&lt；n插入&gt；出现在常态之外。

The main aim of this study is to clarify the conditions of <n-insertion> by young Seoul dialect speakers (in their 20s) in Modern Korean. This study, focusing on young Seoul dialect speakers as the research targets, conducted an informant research analyzing <n-insertion>.The results showed the following facts: The instances of <n-insertion> by young Seoul dialect speakers are most strongly related to the initial sound of the following element. In addition, other various factors such as the length of the following element, the final sound of the preceding element, the level of familiarity with the word, the structure of the word, the syllable structure of the first syllable of the following element, and the length of the word or phrase, affect the occurrence of <n-insertion> in a multi-layered way. Further, it is interesting, from the view of sociolinguistics, to note that <n-insertion> by young Seoul dialect speakers occurs apart from the norm.
