L1 및 L2가 L3 습득에 미치는 영향: 영어 부정극어 중심으로 = The Effects of L1 and L2 on L3 Acquisition: Focusing on English Negative Polarity Items

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aims to investigate the utterance types of English Negative Polarity Items(NPIs) by Korean secondary school students from multicultural families and to understand their effects on the patterns of utterances. Specifically, the utterance ratios of NPIs and indefinite pronouns were investigated in the subject and object positions of English simple sentences. In terms of licensing condition of NPIs, unlike Korean, subject/object asymmetry appears in English, and I would like to consider this from a syntactic perspective. First, the results shown in the subject position are as follows. The rate of indefinite pronoun utterances was lower than that of NPIs in the first and second grades, except for the third grade. The younger the age, the higher the NPI utterance rate. The higher the age, the higher the rate of indefinite pronoun utterance. In other words, the higher the age, the higher the percentage of correct answers. The following are the results shown in the object position. As in the case of the subject position, the NPI utterance rate was higher in the 1st and 2nd grades except for the 3rd grade than the indefinite pronoun. In the object position, both NPIs and indefinite pronouns correspond to the correct answer, so if these two results are combined, the higher the age, the higher the correct answer rate is. According to the birth information of participants, in the case of the 1st and 2nd grades, the ratio of domestic and foreign families is the same and there are more domestic births. In the case of the 3rd grade, the ratio of the two is almost similar, so it seems that it may have had an effect on their utterance rate.
