Professor Ik-sang Eom

from Hanyang University, Seoul

 

will give a lecture entitled

 

Siblings or Neighbors: Chinese and Korean

 

 

abstract

Typologically as well as lexically, Korean shares quite a number of properties with Chinese. The similarities go beyond the Sino-Korean part of the lexicon: we also find them with (seemingly?) indigenous Korean words. In this presentation, we will discuss why Chinese and Korean look similar and how they are related.
