AB - Japanese native speakers living in South Korea use both the Korean and Japanese languages in Japanese conversations. This study examined Japanese-Korean code switching, focusing mainly on its functional aspects. The survey was conducted on 20 Japanese native speakers living in South Korea and the analysis was made based on free conversations. We found that one function of code-switching is emphasis, and this study found that speakers frequently engaged in code-switching when they wanted to elaborate on or emphasize the meaning of what they were saying. We also discovered more functions of code switching: making the conversation seem like it was happening in the presence ; making it easier to distinguish objective facts from subjective opinions; and creating a sense of solidarity with other people by using a combination of Korean and Japanese words. Overall, we found that Japanese people who speak Korean as a foreign language effectively used certain Korean words or phrases in free conversation primarily when they felt it would be more accurate to express a thought in Korean than in Japanese. It also helped to enhance a bond between speakers sharing the same cultural and living conditions.
