Abstract

Vocabulary in foreign language teaching may determine the success or failure of language learning when step-by-step education progresses as a basic element of communication. Thus, its importance is being recognized even in the vocabulary education field in Korean language education. Various discussions are ongoing as to a specific vocabulary teaching-learning method available for a synergistic effect on learning.
 This study sought a method of vocabulary education to expand the vocabulary of international students in the country. The characteristics and format of vocabulary books that are shown in ancient Chinese Yeokhakseo documents were scrutinized. Especially through the construction and structure in 「Joseongwan-yeogeo」(朝鮮館 譯語), which is the teaching material of Joseon-gwan within 『Hwayi-yeokeo』(華 夷譯語) as the textbook of Sai-gwan that is the training institution for interpreters in the Ming Dynasty of China. The structure and classification in‘vocabulary-semantic’were examined using Sino-Korean words with the high lexical production in Korean language education. Additionally, the aim was to identify the possibility of the desirable Joseon language(朝鮮語) vocabulary education and instruction in 「Joseongwan-yeogeo」(朝鮮館譯語) in terms of modern foreign-language vocabulary education through the teaching-learning comparison with the“semantic field approach”that is a traditional lexical access education and the modern vocabulary teaching method in China.
 This paper discusses the diverse methods that find effective vocabulary teaching methods and vocabulary education in Korean language education. At the point in time that arranges an alternative plan for Korean language education that will satisfy the characteristics and needs of learners in each language sphere, we discuss vocabulary use and education seen in 「Joseongwan-yeogeo」(朝鮮館譯語), the teaching material of Joseon language in Sai-gwan(Hoedong-gwan) interpreter during the Ming Dynasty of China. This is considered an opportunity for follow-up research along with a suggestion of the modern Korean-language vocabulary education.
