외래 인명 지명에 관한 동아시아 언어정책 차이의 원인 분석 및 소통 제고를 위한 제안

초록

This article points out the fact that the major countries in East Asia, such as South and North Koreas, China, and Japan, adopt slightly different language policies related with personal and place names in other parts of East Asia. For instance, they call Korean and Japanese names in their own pronunciations in China while the Koreans call Chinese and Japanese names in the original pronunciations in China and Japan respectively. In Japan, however, Korean names are pronounced in Korean pronunciations while Chinese names are pronounced in the Japanese way, namely in Sino-Japanese. Based upon the observation on the current situations, this article aims to analyze the causes for the discrepancies in the language policies in the region and to propose the transliteration as the most ideal policy to enhance mutual communication and understanding among the people in East Asia.
