Linguistic maps & dialect data processing

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The present study explores the major accomplishments made thus far with special consideration of the path of development linguistic map making has taken hitherto in Korea and Japan. The purpose of creating linguistic maps is to identify linguistic boundaries, either big or small, and assign systematic meanings as well as determine the relationship between spatial distribution and change by time. The linguistic maps should be understood in their broader concept that shows the various geographic information related to linguistic branches within a particular geographic area as well as relevant trends and aspects in linguistic branches on not only paper but also online screens and images. This study classifies linguistic maps into manual method maps and computerized maps, for which the time of computerization has been identified as a standard for classification, and explores their types focusing on those demonstrating high performance in presentation techniques.
