Abstract:

This book is a treatise on Middle Korean, i.e. native Korean words and
Sino-Korean words. 

This book adopts as original texts two Middle Korean translations of the
Twu-Chang-Kyeng-Hem-Pang (?????) and the Nap-Yak-Cung-Chi-Pang (???
??), which were medical books in the Joseon Dynasty. Dr. Yeong-Seop Park
argues that these medical books are important research materials for
studies of Middle Korean in the sense that in those days medical books
written in classical Chinese were translated into simple words in order to
disseminate medical knowledge that ordinary people needed. Furthermore, it
selects the following texts as supplementary research materials: (1) an
anthology Twu-Si-En-Hay (????) 'the Middle Korean translation of Po Twu
(??)'s poetry', (2) three Buddhist scriptures 'Sek-Po-Sang-Cel (????)
', 'the Middle Korean translation of the Nung-Em-Kyeng (???)', and 'the
Middle Korean translation of the Nam-Myeng-Chen-Kyey-Song (?????)',
(3) three handbooks of Chinese characters for children, i.e.
'Hwun-Mong-Ca-Hoy (????)', 'Yu-Hap (??)', and 'Chen-Ca-Mwun (???)'. 

This book makes a comparative analysis on Middle Korean equivalents for
Chinese characters of the above texts. This analysis shows the following
two results. One is how one Chinese character is translated into multiple
Middle Korean native words according to contexts. The other is the
phenomenon of disappearance of Middle Korean words. This phenomenon results
from the competitive relationship between/among synonymous Middle Korean
native words or between/among synonymous Middle Korean native words and
Middle Sino-Korean words.
