Abstract

This pape aims to confirm the mispronunciation of native Koean students due to the phonetic and phonological system differences between English and Korean, and to find the works-to-do by experiment. Many Korean students tend to differentiate the sounds of word-final stop consonants not by vowel duration or the allophones but by the phoneme of the consonants itself. In English, Stop sounds change through the conditions of the aspirated, unaspirated, or unreleased sounds. But in Korean they are not allophones of phonemes but distinct phonemes. Therefore, many Korean students are apt to add an extra vowel sound /??/ after the final stop consonant in the CVC form due to both the unperception of the differences between the phonemes and the allophone of stop consonants, and the influence of the Korean sound-sequence relationship.
Since the replacement of the allophones and extra vowel addition does no change the meaning, the importance was almost los. Nevertheless, this kind of study is essential for the precise learning and the use of the English language.
