The influence of korean accent towards english pronunciation in day6’s english interviews / Hana Fairuz Sholivita
Abstrak
The Konglish accent an abbreviation for the Korean-English accent is an accent that is used mostly by Koreans. Konglish accent tends to pronounce English words with a Korean accent that somehow sounds different from the Standard English accent. In the Konglish accent Korean inserts vowels into the consonant cluster to make the words readable for them (Bergmann Hall amp Ross 2007). This paper examines how English words are pronounced with a Korean accent and shows the features that make English spoken by Korean sound accented through the perspective of phonology. The results show that the English spoken by Koreans sound accented because Korean changes the non-existing sound with their existing sound such as substitutions for / theta / sound in English in /birthday/ [b theta de ] with /s/ sound in /birsday/ [b sde ] in Korean deletion for /r/ sound in English in /hard/ [h rd] to /had/ [h d] in Korean and insertion for / / sound in Korean in /jusete/ [d s t ] from /just/ [d st] in English to make Korean pronounced the English words easier.
