The aim of this study is to consider how married woman immigrants communicate in Korean using their insufficient Korean proficiency. For this study, the colloquial discourse of five married woman immigrants from China, the Philippines and Vietnam was recorded. Nonverbal communication was observed using a face-to-face interview method. According to the discourse analysis, married woman immigrants applied various kinds of communicative strategies to communicate smoothly with their counterparts due to their imperfect Korean proficiency. The married woman immigrants often repeat the counterpart's illocutionary actions or their own ones. Especially, the repeat of their own illocutionary actions is one which is not found in native speaker's Korean. They often use the mimic method, including gestures and voices, and request the counterpart's language help when needed. The mimic method is especially a direct imitation which resulted from the difficulties in the change from a direct speech into an indirect speech. Teaching communication strategies as a plan to overcome some problems during communication should be conducted. The communication strategy should focus on the interactive strategy and the linguistic one to continually improve Korean proficiency. (Keimyung University)
