본문내용

In this study, we should focus on the relationship between form and meaning in English. The forms, we are going to study now, is such as:

① Auxiliary forms such as tense, aspect, modality
② Negation forms
③ Question forms
④ Imperative forms

The data for this study consists of the outcome of the questionnaire which was done by 5 native English speakers. All of them work in Jeju National University as a professor or teacher and came from different country, but they all use English as the first language. The number of the subjects is enough since they are all teaching English as native speakers. That means they are typical English speakers; that is, they don't use English in a special way as non-native speakers do.

The questionnaire for this study consists of 9 questions which includes the matter of the use of auxiliary, negation, question, and imperative. The subjects of this study are given some situations and they choose one or two statement and they give the reason; that is, the questionnaire makes the multiple choice type combined with short answer type to know the reason for their selection. In this study, their names will not be mentioned since Westerners tend to consider their privacy as important matter; this study did not obtain their approval for using their names.
