Abstract

Solving the problem of lexical ambivalence requires a comprehensive approach, including vocabulary selection, context consideration, involvement of professional translators and the use of modern technologies. Vocabulary (어휘) is the vocabulary of a language that reflects changes in society and is enriched with new terms. Korean vocabulary includes words of native language (고유어), hieroglyphic origin (한자어) and foreign origin (외래어), as well as idioms (관용어), proverbs (속담) and compound words (연어). Vocabulary also reflects social-class, professional and age differences. The internal structure of semantics is divided into objective (denotative) and conceptual (significative) spheres. Lexical originality in the Korean language is formed under the influence of the functional tasks of the language in social society.
