Abstract

Korean Verbs can be classified according to meanings and usages, verbal characteristics covering four dimensions (action involvement in other items, action influence on other agents, action initiativity) and verbal independency. Generally, all of these are not considered in the classification of Chinese verbs. On the basis of the classification of Korean verbs, we studied the verbs listed in the Outline of HSK (level 1-6) Vocabulary, and discussed its application in teaching Chinese as a foreign language (TCFL).
