초록

This article examines the distribution aspects of variations with ㅢ>ㅔ that occurred in the period of modern Korean language and discussed about the phonological characters of relevant variations. It also studies related notation variations and phonetic changes and revealed that ㅢ>ㅔ variations are a type of frontal monophthongization that appear in Korean language vowel system variation processes.
The second chapter examined the time of appearance and distribution environments of ㅢ>ㅔ variations but verified that it is difficult to discover any special phonological conditions other than second syllables. Hypotheses were made that ㅔ monophthongization occurred when ㅢ>ㅔ variations occurred. Chapter three made note that, because ㅓ>ㅡ vowel raising at the end of the 18th century mainly occurred in initial syllables and because ㅡ>ㅓ variations mainly occurred in southern dialect, it is difficult to tie them together as having the same characteristics as ㅢ>ㅔ variations. Thus, it views ㅢ>ㅔ variations as /ɯj/>/e/ and not as /ɯj/>/əj/ variations but argues that /ɯj/>/e/ occurred after passing through [ɯj]~[e] variation stages. Such confusion could have been caused as the frontal properties that j has in [ɯj] affects [ɯ] in the vowel system of that time when there were confusions about [ɯ] due to the formation of high-low confrontations.
