Appendix:Korean Swadesh list

A user suggests that this Korean appendix be cleaned up, giving the reason: “Not clear why Yale romanisation was used when we use RR throughout Korean namespace and it's teh default - can also be automated. Korean terms are not templatised.”
Please see the discussion on Requests for cleanup(+) or the talk page for more information and remove this template after the problem has been dealt with.

This is a Swadesh list of words in Korean, compared with definitions in English. Only Standard Seoul Korean, the official dialect of both North and South Koreas, is taken into account.

American linguist Morris Swadesh believed that languages changed at measurable rates and that these could be determined even for languages without written precursors. Using vocabulary lists, he sought to understand not only change over time but also the relationships of extant languages. To be able to compare languages from different cultures, he based his lists on meanings he presumed would be available in as many cultures as possible. He then used the fraction of agreeing cognates between any two related languages to compute their divergence time by some (still debated) algorithms. Starting in 1950 with 165 meanings, his list grew to 215 in 1952, which was so expansive that many languages lacked native vocabulary for some terms. Subsequently, it was reduced to 207, and reduced much further to 100 meanings in 1955. A reformulated list was published posthumously in 1971.
