Newly Coined Terms
Usage
slang, vulgarism, and newly coined terms usage is widespread among teenagers, usage especially extreme among older teenagers and those with high tolerance attitudes towards usage of aforementioned words (박종호).
Study of 6000 Korean public elementary, middle, high school students high school to figure out teenage language usage, language consciousness, and related factors (박종호).
-
100 university students --> media perception, university student language use perception, and language use alteration
(“A National Survey on the Language Consciousness of Youth in Language and Practice”).
University students most frequently used SNS and the internet, stated that SNS influenced their language usage the most. Only 18% male and 10% female university students found language usage problematic (“A National Survey on the Language Consciousness of Youth in Language and Practice”).
But Only 18% male and 10% female university students found language usage problematic (“A National Survey on the Language Consciousness of Youth in Language and Practice”).
Cause for Development
Societal
Newly coined terms reflect social phenomenons during specific time period, and they can be utilized to analyze and remember social aspects of society during a particular time period (김진희, 김환, 장영익).
Extralinguistic factors : emergence of new reality, scientific and technical advancement, globalization, development of the Internet (Nikolay Shamne).
COVID-19
As COVID-19 crisis limited physical contact --> technologies play a bigger role in communication (Amanda Roig–Marín).
Though carries high linguistic ingenuity, lack technicality
(not created by medical or scientific professionals) (Amanda Roig–Marín).
popularize specific terms, more than 1,000 new words were created during COVID pandemic (Amanda Roig–Marín).
Psychological
-
Intralinguistic factors : expressiveness of linguistic means, shift in stylistic usage of the words (Nikolay Shamne).
Motives for devising and using neologisms are not only in the functional requirements, connected to language user’s psychological requirements (LIN Ming-chang).
-
tendency of the younger generation to avoid interference and to enjoy adding ingenuity to the existing order (유경민).
Evaluation
Positive
Newly coined terms = evidence of sustainable development of the whole language system and everyday communication
(Leila Mirzoyevaand Oxana Syurmen).
combination of native and borrowed elements in blended nonce-words --> newly coined terms strongly emotive and carry expressive potential (Leila Mirzoyevaand Oxana Syurmen).
newspapers = powerful medium that spreads neologisms (headlines, news to convey new events), recommend inclusion of neologisms in vocabulary material given out in schools
(Entesar Alsir Abu-ALgasim Mohamed).
New words that reflect new phenomena in society & ability to translate newly coined terms in a culturally non-offending manner must be learned by interpreters to accurately convey meanings within a given time at the translation site (Jungwha Choi).
Negative
Most neologisms related to physical domains were positive, but neologisms related to sexual domains conveyed negative connotations for both genders (Barli Bram, Truly Almendo Pasaribu).
Though some gender-related neologisms are utilized as empowerment, many served to expand sexual stereotypes (Barli Bram, Truly Almendo Pasaribu).
Debate over newly coined terms
Spanish society didn’t demonstrate highly positive perception of synthetic biology (to depict this new scientific field), matter of public acceptance, need to be considerate (Martí Domínguez Juli Peretó Manuel Porcar).
Automatic identification of the neologisms is not yet wholly satisfactory, web trends must be carefully observed during neologism investigation (Kilim Nam, Soojin Lee, Hae-Yun Jung).
.
Only recent user-generated content dictionaries do mention high-frequency neologisms. But because this dictionary is generated based on users’ preferences, systematic and active approach to the lexicographical inclusion of neological headword candidates is needed (Kilim Nam, Soojin Lee, Hae-Yun Jung).
Proposed Solutions
teenage language usage differed at formal/informal situations, expose students to more formal talking situations (debate, school-wide talk shows, etc) ("An in-depth study of current adolescent language culture and its implications for improvement").
Organize inquiry-based learning for students to explore original Korean language (not newly coined terms, slangs, etc), compulsory campaigns must be avoided ("An in-depth study of current adolescent language culture and its implications for improvement").
Teach students I-message communication method (not blaming others, speaking in own perspective) ("An in-depth study of current adolescent language culture and its implications for improvement").
Need to differentiate those using a lot of newly coined terms/slangs/vulgarism from those who don't use, need consistent educational program & supervision ("An in-depth study of current adolescent language culture and its implications for improvement").
