Abstract
This study aims to analyze discriminatory expressions included in the <Korean Basic Dictionary> from the perspective of Korean language education. This dictionary, compiled by the National Institute of the Korean Language starting in 2010, serves as a web learning dictionary for Korean learners and teachers and has been widely utilized to date. The research focused on the educational aspects of the dictionary, particularly categorizing discriminatory expressions found in definitions and examples, which are especially important for reading and writing sections. Types of discriminatory expressions were categorized based on gender and sexual orientation, racial and national origins, regional differences, religion, abilities and professions, political beliefs, age and generation, and other socially vulnerable groups. The study highlighted the issues in individual cases and proposed potential solutions. Through this deep exploration of discriminatory expressions in definitions and examples, the research proposed an educational direction for the Korean learning dictionary.
