초록

This paper explores whether Korean men and women use the positive responses ne and ye differently, and whether there has been a change in their usage. The responses of 570 Korean university students were used in this study. The responses of the students were observed while calling the role in class. In addition, novels by a female writer, Gong Ji-yeong, and two male writers, Kim Tak-hwan and Bak Hyeon-uk, were examined. It was found that in the past a majority of male students used ye while a majority of female students used ne. But recent data suggests that more male students have begun to use ne while female students still use ne predominantly. Overall, the distinction in usage between males and females appears to have become less noticeable.
