ABSTRACT

In this study, We intended to describe the diversification process of meaning between bueok(the dialect of central area, the standard language) and busak(the dialect of Jeollanamdo) in diachronic method. Although bueok and busak have the same pedigree, meanings are not in accordance; busak means a fuel hole and bueok means a cook space. In Jeollanamdo dialect, a cook space is jeongje, not bueok. On the other hand, the standard meaning of a fuel hole is agung-i. Busak and jeongje(the dialect of Jeollanamdo) correspond to agungi and bueok(the dialect of central area) as synonyms. Therefore, We assumed that bueok(or busak) meant both a fuel hole and a cook space etymologically. Busak and jeongje have been used from the middle ages and used in Jeollanamdo Jangheung up to now. But as agungi meant a fuel hole in the central area of the 17th century, bueok didn’t mean a fuel hole anymore. Therefore, We concluded that meaning between bueok and busak was differentiated in the seventeenth century. Also we investigated the process of phonetic changes on busak and jeongje. Busak has preserved ‘ㅅ/s/’ that is a phonetic form in the early middle ages than ‘ㅿ/z/’ that in the middle ages. The final phoneme has been changed as follows; ㅂ/b/ > ㄱ/g/ > ㅋ/k/. Jeongje is originated in jeongdyu(form in the middle ages) and has been changed as follows; 졍듀/jeongdyu/ > 정디/jeongdi/ > 정지/jeongji/ > 정제/jeongje/.
