AB - The purpose of the present study lies in examining the characteristics of sentences in e-mails in Japanese written by Korean learners of Japanese and discovering aspects that require special care in Japanese language education. Data was collected by assigning eight types of e-mail tasks (contact, inquiry, appreciation, refusal, request, apology, etc. ) to ten Korean learners of Japanese of higher language ability, ten Korean learners of Japanese of lower language ability, and ten native Japanese speakers from the same age bracket. From this data, opening and closing expressions in the e-mails were analyzed. According to the results, while native Japanese speakers selected expressions for building good relationships even if they stemmed from sociocultural obligations rather than true feelings and thoughts (“Arigato” and “Osewa-ninaru” in the opening part; “Yoroshikuonegaishimasu” in the closing part, accompanied by a request), Korean learners of Japanese placed weight on greetings, starting any task with “Konnichiwa,” and selected realistic expressions rather than those originating from sociocultural obligations (“Ohenji omachishiteimasu” and “Purezento-o-okurimasu” in the closing part). The results show that teachers should use extra care with students regarding the subtle sociolinguistic differences between Japanese and Korean languages and cultures.
