ABSTRACT

In this paper the Middle Korean vowel system was analyzed as an [ATR]-based on a two-level vowel system with the feature hierarchy [coronal]>[high]>[ATR], whereas the Modern Korean vowel system as a [labial]-based on a three-level vowel system with a new feature hierarchy [corona]>[high]>[low]>[labial]. In the former vowel system, [labial] was represented as a redundant feature owing to the characteristic of this vowel system. With the only environment of an adjacent labial, a vowel /ㆍ/, /ㅡ/ was exchanged to /ㅗ/, /ㅜ/ synchronically on the non-distinctive phonetic level by assimilation. In the late 16th century, [ATR]-based on a two level vowel system was disrupted by the neutralization of ‘ㆍ/ㅡ’. This appearance of the new feature contrast hierarchy occurred in the different phonological changes. When the contrast hierarchy was [coronal>[high]>[low]>[labial], the labialization of ‘ㅡ>ㅜ’ happened through the neutralization of the minimal contrast [labial]. However, If this contrast hierarchy were changed to [coronal>[high]>[labial]>[low], the labialization ‘ㆍ>ㅗ’ happened through the neutralization of the [low] instead of [labial].
