Content Descriptor

apply knowledge of conventions of spoken Korean to enhance fluency, and to respond to and create texts in familiar and some unfamiliar contexts

Elaborations

• pronouncing assimilated consonants correctly, for example, 학년 [항년], 육년 [융년], 국물 [궁물], 설날 [설랄], 좋다 [조타]
• pronouncing syllable blocks in a word, making appropriate changes to the sounds on syllable boundaries according to pronunciation rules, for example, 먹고 [먹꼬], 어떻게 [어떠케]
•
recognising and using stress patterns appropriately to convey the intended meanings, for example, 어제 떡볶이를 처음 먹었는데 정말 맛있었어 to separate clauses by stressing the conjunction word, “어디가 아파요?” to mean “Where does it hurt?”, “어디가 아파요?” to mean “Are you unwell?”
• carrying over final syllables according to pronunciation rules, for example, 옷이 [오시], 독일 [도길]
• adjusting the pronunciation of ㄷ to ㅈ and ㅌ to ㅊ when followed by 이, for example, 같이 [가치], 끝이 [끄치], 굳이 [구지], 해돋이 [해도지]

Year 7 Languages Achievement Standard

By the end of Year 8, students initiate and maintain interactions in Korean language in familiar and some unfamiliar contexts related to a range of interests and experiences. They use Korean to collaborate and problem-solve, and adjust language in response to others. They interpret information, ideas and opinions in texts. They demonstrate understanding of similarities and differences between languages, in both familiar and some unfamiliar cultural contexts, by adjusting and reorganising responses. They select and use vocabulary, sentence structures and expressions to create texts. Students apply the conventions of spoken Korean to develop fluency. They demonstrate understanding that spoken, written and multimodal texts use different language conventions, structures and features to convey meaning. They comment on structures and features of Korean text, using metalanguage. They reflect on how the Korean language, culture and identity are interconnected, and compare this with their own language(s), culture(s) and identity.
