Abstract

The goal of this research is to show various aspects and characteristics of deictic verbs used in Korean language education textbooks. In order to accomplish this goal, this paper examined how deictic verbs were suggested as new vocabulary, as target grammatical items, and in texts like reading materials and listening scripts. Data sources were from five series of Korean textbooks which are widely used in well-known Korean language education institutes. The findings of data analysis showed that deictic verbs have not been-suggested as target grammatical items unlike other reference items. Rather, they have been suggested as limited conjugational forms only with simple translations in new vocabulary section. The deictic verbs in the texts showed lower frequency than those in Korean native speakers
