ABSTRACT

This thesis aims to search for basic materials for advisable writing education, after analyzing and classifying the cases of misused words and sentences in everyday life. First of all, the cases of the misuses appearing frequently on various media (such as book, newspaper, magazine, pamphlet, signboard, and bulletin) are arranged and classified depending upon their field and then analyzed. The cases are divided based on the regulations on the words and phrases of the Korean language, Korean language dictionaries, various grammar books, etc. The cases of the said misuses include the duplication of meaning, and the use of inappropriate conjunctions, wrong construction of sentences, and unnatural sentences which seem to be translated from foreign language expressions. Right writings should follow the grammar, which is about the construction and operation of linguistic terms in a legitimate way. This is an indispensable requisite for good writing. Any writing will lose its power of life if it is not composed in a logical and grammatical manner. That is why this study is intended to summarize the actual examples of misused words and sentences, identify preventive teaching methods, and promote right writing skills.
