Abstract

Even though the results of sociolinguistic researches are providing the direct materials of foreign language education, the results of sociolinguistic researches have not been reflected into the field of Japanese language education. Especially, the contrastive sociolinguistics that mostly researches the international comparison of linguistic behaviors is more deeply related to Japanese language education because the contrastive sociolinguistics could reveal differences in two languages that could not be examined in an individual language, and foreign learners make the most errors in this part. Thus, it would be necessary to actively reflect and converge the results of researches on contrastive sociolinguistics with Japanese language education. From this perspective, this paper introduces the representative results of researches in the field of contrastive sociolinguistics between Korean and Japanese, and also call for convergence with Japanese language education.
