국문 초록

元音是汉语音节的主要组成部分，要想产生标准的汉语发音，就必须准确区分不同条件下元音变体的发音。韩国学习者经常难以区分汉语的非后元音，导致发音错误。通过对六名参与者的汉语非低后元音发音共振峰值的 Praat 语音分析，比较了韩国二级汉语使用者和一级汉语使用者的元音空间。研究发现，/ʅ/和/ɿ/之间的区别不是很清楚，两个元音总体上都向/i/靠拢。在 /u/和/o/发音方面，韩国二级汉语使用者主要根据 F2 值来区分这两个元音，而一级汉语使用者则主要通过 F1 值的差异来区分它们，这表明舌头高度的变化。此外，对于韩国二级汉语使用者来说， /ɣ / 的 F1 和 F3 值更高，这表明对 /ɣ / 作为舌头位置略高的前元音的理解是错误的，而就高度而言，它应该与/o/高度接近。

영문 초록

Vowels are the main components of Chinese syllables, and in order to produce standard Chinese pronunciation, it is essential to accurately distinguish the pronunciation of vowel variants under different conditions. Korean-speaking learners often struggle with differentiating Chinese non-low back vowels, leading to pronunciation errors. Through Praat speech analysis of formant values for the pronunciation of Chinese non-low back vowels by six participants, Korean L2 Chinese speakers and L1 Chinese speakers’ vowel spaces were compared. It was found that the distinction between /ʅ / and /ɿ / was not very clear, with both vowels overall shifting closer to /i /. In terms of /u / and /o / pronunciation, Korean L2 Chinese speakers differentiated these two vowels mainly based on the value of F2, whereas L1 Chinese speakers primarily distinguished them by the difference in F1 values, indicating variations in tongue height. Furthermore, the F1 and F3 values for /ɣ / were higher for Korean L2 Chinese speakers, suggesting an incorrect interpretation of /ɣ / as a front vowel with slightly higher tongue position, whereas it should align closely with /o / in terms of height.
