Abstract
|
|
|
Objective: The purpose of this study is to analyze the similarities and differences in neonatal medical terminology between South Korea and North Korea.
Methods: This study was carried out by searching North Korean neonatal terminologies used in textbooks published in North Korea and comparing those terms with the South Korean terms used in textbooks in South Korea.
Results: The North Korean terms are different from the South Korean terms in that North Korean terms adopt more from the native language. There are also some differences in the inscription of foreign language, spelling and spacing. But, there are few terms that cannot be capable of communication.
Conclusion: We could identify the major differences between South Korean and North Korean neonatal medical terms. We should take effort to establish unified terms by establishing more communication between both sides.
