The purpose of this study is to find the influence of Chinese falling-rising tone on the pitch pattern of corresponding Sino-Korean words delivered by Chinese learners of Korean and to examine how the falling-rising tone of corresponding Chinese words affect the pitch patterns of Sino-Korean words. The scope of this research is limited to Chinese learners of Korean, especially when they pronounce same-form-same-meaning Sino-Korean words. In this study, Chinese learners pronounced both Chinese words and corresponding Sino-Korean words. Learners’ pitch patterns were recorded and analyzed using software and compared with the tone of corresponding Chinese words. Experimental results showed that Sino-Korean words were affected by Chinese ‘falling-rising tone - high and level tone’ when they started with lenis sounds. On the other hand, when Sino-Korean words started with aspirated sounds they were affected by Chinese ‘falling-rising tone - high and level tone’, ‘falling-rising tone - falling-rising tone’, and ‘falling-rising tone - falling tone’. In conclusion, the Chinese learners’ pitch patterns of Sino-Korean words are affected by Chinese falling-rising tone, especially when Sino-Korean words start with aspirated sounds.
