[KS] Taehanin cengkyopo

Ross,

You discuss various practices of Korean orthography in Korean newspapers
published in Vladivostok, including the Taehanin cengkyopo of 1913 - 1914.
You were unaware at the time that Chwunwen Li Kwang-swu wrote several of the
works in the Taehanin cengkypo, but acknowledged this later at my talk at
UBC.  Would you revise your conclusions in light of this new knowledge?
For example, you observe the lack of lenition of /p/ in p-irregular verbs
e.g. /nup.esno-lamyen/ and you attribute this to the influence of Hamgyong
dialects spoken by most Koreans on Russian territory, and/or strict
morphophonemic treatment of verbs.
Now that you know this was Chwunwen, and he was not from Hamgyong province
but from P'yongan province, would you modify your conclusions?  Was this not
the influence of P'yongan dialect, or a reflection of practices in Korea at
the time?
According to Li Swung-nyeng's Pangen sacen, this lack of lenition in
p-irregular verbs is characteristic of South P'yongan dialect; North
Kyongsang dialect; and South Cholla dialect.  For example:  nwupwunta.
Other examples:  nwupeni (locales in South Kykongsang); nwupese (various
locales in North Kyongsang, South Kyongsang and South Cholla); nwupwuni
(locales in South Cholla, parts of South Kyongsang); nwupwula (South
Kyongsang: Cangwen).

Respectfully,

Ann
