The production and perception of Korean monophthongs by Myanmar’s advanced learners of Korean

Abstract
This paper investigates the production of Korean monophthongs by advanced
learners of Myanmar in comparison to native Korean speakers, based on findings
from production and perception experiments. The results of the production
experiment reveal that advanced learners produce the high front vowel /i/ at a higher
position than native Korean speakers. Conversely, the low back vowel /a/ exhibits a
more varied distribution of F1 values among advanced learners. Notably, no
statistically significant differences in F1 and F2 values were observed between /e/
and /ɛ/ in the two groups, with scatterplots indicating overlapping regions for these
monophthongs. Nevertheless, advanced learners demonstrate a higher tongue position
and more anterior articulation for /e/ and /ɛ/ compared to native Korean speakers. The
absence of the Korean monophthong /ɯ/ in the Myanmar vowel system leads to a
broader distribution along the F2 axis in production, highlighting a distinct
articulatory pattern. Moreover, while there are no statistically significant differences
in either F1 or F2 values for the corresponding vowels /u/ and /o/ among advanced
learners, differences are primarily observed in F2 values for native Korean speakers.
Regarding the results of the perception test, the most notable difference between
beginning and advanced learners was found in the misperception rate of the Korean
monophthong /ɯ/, which significantly decreased in advanced learners, suggesting an
improvement in their perceptual accuracy and discrimination abilities.
