Or only certain products? Origins Portuguese pãoHowever, bread first came to Korea before this with Western missionaries in the 1880s. It was also made in a Western-style hotel from 1902, where it was called myŏnp’o (면포)–a word still used in China as miàn bāo (麵包/面包).But, bread became more widely known in Korea from the beginning of the Japanese colonization, when it got its current Korean nameLinguistic elementsPronunciation: tense consonants, represented by double or “twin” (쌍) consonants. So like in this case, 비읍, which roughly corresponds to the the sound that b makes in English, would be written twice, and pronounced differently방 vs 빵 We’ll talk about this in depth in a later episodeMain linguistic element today: Non-Asian loanwords through JapaneseA lot of words we think of as being loanwords from a European language into Korean actually came in through JapanesePão didn’t become ppang in one step, though–it appears to have entered the Korean lexicon through Japanese during the colonial period (1910-1945).Jaymin discusses some history behind this - Portuguese exploration and contact with Japan, then Japanese contact with KoreaOther such words?아르바이트 (often contracted to 알바) Burberry (pabari) came into Korean through Japanese as a word for trench coat (Ramsey 2006),2008 article by Yoonjung Kang at University of Toronto and her coauthors: Study that showed that among English loanwords in Korean, those borrowed through Japanese have different phonological traits than those borrowed directly from English“In direct English borrowings into Contemporary Korean, English [f] is in general adapted as the aspirated bilabial stop [ph], as in fashion ! [phes*j8n], Ford ! [phodi], coffee ! [kh8phi], golf ! [k*olphi], etc. In English borrowings transmitted through Japanese, on the other hand, [f] appears as [h(w)] in Korean, because English [f] is adapted as Japanese [H], an allophone of /h/and Japanese /h/ is consistently adapted as Korean [h(w)],”For exampleF -> ph/h(w) (aspirated bilabial stop (p)) vs more of an h sound, that’s consistently adapted as hw from Japanese to KoreanDirect from English: 골프 , 패션, 커피Through Japanese: 흐라이 Doublets: 환타지/판타지 BibliographyKang, Y., Kenstowicz, M. & Ito, C.
