Description

*Correct Writing of Our Language* is a humanities book dedicated to the proper use of our language and writing. Composed of five volumes, this book aims to rectify the Korean language, which has been impurely influenced by Chinese, Japanese, and Western words, and to correct the habit of writing in a way that is unnecessarily difficult. This is because our current language and writing are not closely tied to our thoughts or lives, making it impossible to express our lives and feelings in writing correctly and freely. The author argues that the degradation of our language ultimately signifies the spirit of our people leaving our language, and urges the use of clean Korean language and writing.

This is the book I have been waiting for. As a writer, this is a book I must keep by my side for the rest of my life to draw guidance from. Thank you.

It was an opportunity to reflect on the value of our language. I found that there are still many remnants of Japanese words and English-style speech patterns remaining, more than I had expected.

This book is packed with the substantial content I had been looking forward to. It exceeded my expectations, and I would recommend it to anyone curious about this field. I haven't finished reading it yet, but I plan to read it little by little with excitement and finish it thoroughly. If I get the chance, I would also like to write a book review. Thank you for this great book.
