Comparison And Error Analysis Between"zuo/hada" Of Chinese And Korean

Modern Chinese "做(zuo)" is a commonly used word in the entry-level Chinese-learning classes for foreign students and it is a word that corresponds to New HSK-1st [grade(tier)] while being a polysemy verb with a wide range of meanings. For foreigners who learn Chinese for the first time, this word is mostly known to serve as "Do" in English, which corresponds to Korean expression "(?)(hada)".Compared to the various parts of speech of Chinese "zuo" and the Korean "hada," the word has various grammatical features such as acting as a verb, suffix, assistant and many others depending on the context."hada" can be used separately when it is used as a main verb but it is used after a formation of conjugation when it is used as a suffix or an assistant. The most important element in the formation of sentence is "preceding element+hada"Generally, a dependent noun, noun, proper noun, noun verb, foreign noun, adverb and more can act as a preceding element. Therefore many Korean students who study Chinese then do understand only the grammatical structure and function of the word resulting in the misuse "zuo" in places where the "zuo" is not required in a sentence, omitting the word, or using "zuo" when it does not suit the expression.In Korea, there are many studies about the word "hada" and many scholars have made various studies about its use. On the other hand, in the case of the Chinese polysemy verb "zuo" does not have enough studies about its use. There are several abstracts that compared’作(zuo)”with "zuo" and verbs with various meanings such as da, gao, gan, nong.
