Language Policies in North and South Korea: Divergence and Convergence.
Song, Jae Jung
Language Quarterly, v32 n1-2 p205-12 Sum-Fall 1994
Argues that the language policies in North and South Korea are in some respects divergent and in others convergent. The North uses more nativized words, while the South retains Sino-Korean words. Awareness of each other's policies and their implications in the event of reunification is evident in the regressive measures taken. (23 references) (CK)
