ABSTRACT

Korean auxiliary verb “itta (있다)” is composed of two constructions inKorean language: “~go itta (~고 있다)” and “~eo itta (~어 있다).” Of thetwo, “~go itta” presents both the meaning of “progress” and “duration,” while“~eo itta” only indicates “duration.” On the other hand, as Chinese is devoidof such an auxiliary verb, it is virtually difficult for Chinese learners ofKorean language to grasp the differences between “~go itta” and “~eo itta.”On a positive side, however, there are corresponding expressions in Chineselanguage with regard to the two Korean expressions. Considering that theinfluence of the mother tongue cannot be ignored in the second languageacquisition, this study has used the comparative analysis of “~go itta” and thecorresponding expressions in Chinese language in order to help Chinesestudents not only to distinguish the differences between “~go itta” and “~eoitta” but also to master Korean auxiliary verb “itta” faster and more efficiently.
