Abstract

This paper aims at comparing hedged expressions in the introduction of master's theses written in Korean by Chinese learners of Korean compared with Korean native speakers based on Hyland (1998). To this end, the master's theses written in Korean were collected from 50 native-speaking Korean writers and 50 Chinese learners of Korean as a foreign language from the field of teaching Korean as a foreign language. Findings show that the theses written by the native-speaking Koreans were more hedged than those by the Chinese learners of Korean.
