초록

This article is devoted to the speech situations introduction, greeting, farewell in Korean and Russian speech etiquette. In this connection, the authors examine in detail various typical expression, as well as nonverbal accompaniment. We researched cross-cultural communication patterns for the basic communication situations of meeting, introduction, and separation. We examined misunderstandings arising from differences in language and its manners between Koreans and Russians. This research presents comparative examples of expression demonstrating the discord between Korean and Russian language and its manners. This paper is a comparative linguistics perspective on clichés used in a variety of situations. We analyzed a linguistic-geographical annotation of clichés by situation to better understand the interaction of communication and culture. In addition, authors discuss the nonverbal components that accompany verbal communication. Examples of nonverbal communication include handshake, intonation, and reaction to greeting. We attempted an analysis of accord and discord by observing linguistic conventions in Korea and Russia. In conclusion, differences in verbal and nonverbal communication according to culture are noticeable between Koreans and Russians. These differences are sometimes symmetrical and sometimes completely opposite. Communicants often misunderstand one another when they ignore cultural differences that may affect their use of verbal and nonverbal language. These misunderstandings can be resolved or avoided by careful comparative linguistic perspective analysis of observations from both languages and cultures. Therefore, this research will help advance communication and cultural understanding.
