ABSTRACT

The Nogeoldae, the Baktongsa and the Yeogeoyuhae are three books that were written at the end of the seventeenth century. These books have been widely used to study Chinese. The “the vulgar sound” and “the rest pronunciation” discussed in the explanatory part of the Yeogeoyuhae recorded a variety of Chinese pronunciations used at that time. In the history of the Chinese language, phonetic changes have provided important references. According to the analysis discussed this paper, “the vulgar sound” and “the rest pronunciation” in the Yeogeoyuhae have been included in the modern pronunciations (i.e., the vernacular pronunciation and the classical pronunciation), the pronunciations used in the Yuan Ming and Qing dynasties, the pronunciation preceding the Yuan dynasty, and the dialects. In addition, the etymology was different from that contained in the Guangyun. The Yeogeoyuhae’s right pronunciations recorded the usual pronunciations, but there were also many folk pronunciations. Among these pronunciations, some had already been adopted as the modern pronunciations, some had disappeared except as part of the folk pronunciations, and some of them came from the dialects.
