Yun, Young Min . 2012. A research of modern Korean and Japanese affixes derived types . Language Information . Volume 15. 69-94.

This manuscript, researched on the issues of derivations through the [attribution] of “Expertise” between modern Korean and Japanese linguistics mainly based on the suffix of expressing people. The results are as followed from the examination which became clear.

1. “~sa(師)/~shi(師)”is defined as the base that holds the attribution towards “X ”which could be indicated as the meaning of the suffix of the persons occupation. However, this attribution does not express affirmative nature at its extent, but negative character as well. Through this research, the derivative of modern Korean and Japanese linguistics such as “~sa(師)/~shi(師)”would be a minor use of recent occupations showing an aspect of expression change.

2. In comparison between “~sa(師)/~shi(師)”and“~sa(士)/~shi(士)”, “~sa (士)/~shi(士)” indicates rather specific meanings. Hence, the [nature] of “~sa(士)/~shi(士)”is figured to be located a rank below “~sa(師)/~shi(師)”. However, it is understood through this research that recent derivatives of “~sa(士)/~shi(士)” is active towards participation of word formation. This shows that the attribution of “~sa(師)/~shi(師)”holds “Expertise” of “Occupation” as “~sa(士)/~shi(士)” in modern use holds the attribution of two meanings which is “Occupation” and “Qualification”.
3. The “Expertise” that “~za(者)/~sya(者)”holds is located in the attribution which will be “[Independency]”. Therefore, it is considered from the affix change of“~in(人)/~nin(人)”which “Person” will be the original source and with “~za(者)/~sya(者)”combined, it will conduct “[A Person with Expertise holding Independency]”.
4. The “Expertise” that “~ga(家)/~ka·ke(家)” holds is located in the attribution which will be “Occupation” and “Qualification”. This holds a similar nature between “~sa(師)/~shi(師)”, “~sa(士)/~shi(士)”. (Dongnam Health College)
