      Preface

      This book is the follow-on volume to Elementary Korean, published by Tuttle Publishing. For detailed background about the making of this textbook series, please refer to the preface in Elementary Korean.

      Like Elementary Korean, Continuing Korean owes much to the comments and criticisms of several cohorts of students at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, and at the University of British Columbia (UBC), during the years 1990–2001. Likewise, Continuing Korean has benefited from valuable feedback on the part of numerous colleagues in Korea, Great Britain, the United States, and Canada. We have acknowledged most of these debts in the preface to Elementary Korean but would like to take this opportunity to record our gratitude to the following UBC Teaching Assistants (TAs) and Sessional Lecturers who have contributed in numerous ways to the making of Continuing Korean: Jee-Weon Shin (TA, 1996–1997 academic year); Soowook Kim (academic years 1997–1999; 2000–2002), Dafna Zur (1999–2000). In addition, Sunah Park Cho made numerous helpful criticisms during the years 1998–2000 while working as webmaster for the UBC Korean Language Program Web sites, Susie (Yunju) Cho and Victoria Wilding helped compile the glossaries and exercise answer key and Mookyung Kim, Soowook Kim, and Victoria Wilding proofread the manuscript several times. We gratefully acknowledge the helpful comments and criticisms of Eurie Shin, Alexander Vovin, Michael Sinclair and Charles Danziger in producing the revised 2015 edition. Finally, we are grateful to Sunah Cho, Sun Hyang Jung, Ilsung Lee and Soowook Kim for providing their voice talents for the audio, and to Frank Ludwig and Al Farrell of Quantum Sound Studio and Frank Talk Publishing, Ltd., for their expert assistance in producing and editing the audio recordings.

      We would be delighted to hear more feedback, positive or negative, from future users of this book. Please contact us at the addresses below:

      Introduction

      The authors have aimed to write a book that will appeal to a broad range of learners, including individuals working on their own, professional people working with a tutor, and university students in a classroom setting. The remarks here are aimed primarily at teachers contemplating using the textbook with learners of the latter type.

      Main Objective

      The main objective of the two volumes comprising Elementary Korean and Continuing Korean is communicative competence in contemporary spoken Korean through a systematic and streamlined introduction to the fundamental patterns of the language. Most lessons in Continuing Korean (this, the second volume) also contain a “Reading Passage,” and both volumes introduce a small number of patterns more relevant to written language than spoken. In such cases, the student is advised as to the spoken vs. written language status of the pattern in question. Thus, these textbooks do not aim at oral competence alone.

      In terms of the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines, the authors believe that the two volumes together provide enough material for a student to attain Intermediate-Low to Intermediate-Mid proficiency level. Of course, this is also dependent on the number of contact hours and the quality of “act”-related (as opposed to “fact”-related) instruction provided.

      Basic Methodology

      This textbook is unabashedly structuralist and eclectic in its philosophy and methodology. Some teachers versed in the latest task-based and proficiency-oriented approaches to language teaching may
